Congrats man. What city are you moving to?
i appreciate that. Moving to Atl to snatch up some of the women there lol
Nice. Well, I'm still studying for my CCENT. I been finished the CBT nuggets, but I'm now downloading the trainsignal vids. Like I said, it's either the ATL or Los Angeles for me. Are they going to pay for you to move down there?
yeah theyre giving me a little relocation money. Keep studying man, it pays off.
But, if you want to get into acting, you should try to get to Cali asap. Why go to Atl?
Quick question King. I know you put ATL on your resume, how did you get them to give you relocation money then?
I put atl on the resume just to attract recruiters from here..then the first thing i told them was i live in NC. I just asked if it was provided and they worked something out to give me a stack for relo. wasnt much but it helped
Okay cool. I just got off the phone with a recruiter and told him i was in ATL lol. Oh well, trying to see what this 4 month contract looking like. What are yall rates? -
@Valdez For a 4 month contract tell him your rate is 75/hr. You have your CCNP Voice right? Them ? will pay trust me, and if they say its too high, ask them what's the best they can offer and pretend like you're taking and L only accepting 60/hr lol. Always ask for more than you want, they'll always tell you what their rate is if they want you. And always negotiate if they come back with a lower rate. I hate a recruiter start at 30/hr and end up agreeing to 60/hr

with that kind of bread imma cop a S600 or some type of Ferrari. or both -
Man I sat down and made a list of all the configuration that the lab requires, and I'm mad depressed now lol. I didn't realize how much ? you have to master for this cert man. No wonder CCIEs make so much bread, that ? is borderline traumatizing.copperkid27 wrote: »Yo IT thread gawds...if I wanted to enter the field of ciso security certifications, with wich certification must I began with?
I know you said you found it, but the path is CCNA, CCNA Security, CCNP Security, then CCIE Security. Here's a PDF from Cisco showing their certification path:
http://www.cisco.com/web/learning/employer_resources/pdfs/CiscoCareerCertPaths-PosterFinal.pdf
I had that ? hanging up on my wall at work with dates of when I would complete each track, and a crown at the top for when I smashed the CCIE. ? was mad motivational, especially when ? would walk past my desk and see my progress over the last 18 months.

-
yeah man ? aint gonna be easy. no wonder ? get to ccnp and stop.
when i get my ccie, i'm quitting my job, that SAME day and taking a month off. -
you gonna have to get the blueprint and break that ? down, master every topic then go to the next
-
I looked at blueprint and it didn't seem that bad. About 90% of the ? on there I was familiar with already. But when I broke everything down by device, I realized its a whole lot more than that lab says man.
I'm still gonna for my R&S after passing the security though lmao -
Studying for that CCIE R&S written at the moment. cant decide what i want to do. Been back and forth between that and CCDA. Most of the jobs im getting hit up for want me to design or build out a network.
-
Got my CCNA prob gonna re take my CCNP courses in when i move... but i want to get into some other ? outside of Cisco... but im not sure what yet.
