Posted: 02 Sep 2018 03:10 AM PDT Hi all Looking into completing CCNP security. I currently work in security and everyone seems to have a NP R&S. What's people recommendations on training material? Are the OCGs any good? Also what did people do for labs I know I'm going to need a lot of VMs but read I will also need to buy an ASA 5506. TIA Ben [link] [comments] |
how to start network engineer career in 2018 and beyond. Posted: 02 Sep 2018 07:53 AM PDT Correct me if I am wrong first crack your way up in software development (backend mostly, python, nodejs, golang etc) and then jump into networking field with those cisco CCNA certs. you = Not unicorn But someone who will be called unicorn developer because of those skills edit: I'm someone who is in college right now (22 yrs old), interested in networking field but lately learning python, javascript. Bascially web development. Pleas enlighten me regarding network engineering. Thank you [link] [comments] |
Business Information Systems with concentration in Cybersecurity? Posted: 02 Sep 2018 08:31 AM PDT Hi Reddit, I'm in a bit of a pickle. I am currently in college to become an electrical engineer, but the math is completely overwhelming, and I cannot see myself doing it for the rest of my life, if I'm just barely passing my most basic calculus classes while simultaneously studying 3 hours a day of just that. However, I was on my college's website and saw this degree (Business Information Systems with concentration in Cybersecurity, BSBA) and have a few questions... What can I do with it? I know I can be a cyber security analyst, and probably basic sysadmin-ing if I can't find one right out of school. Is there a better way to go about this? Meaning, would just a buttload of certifications serve me better? Or do I need them on top of this to get a good job? What would the pay be like? Is it livable? I know it won't be as high as a EE major, but I still like having nice things and good food. Thanks in advance folks, please let me know if you have any questions. [link] [comments] |
Has anyone ever heard of the site FieldEngineer.com Posted: 02 Sep 2018 09:42 AM PDT I recieved an email from them they say they help freelance Field Engineers get connected with employers/projects and take a small facilitation fee. Has anyone ever heard about it or used it? Is it a scam? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 02 Sep 2018 09:39 AM PDT I have a homelab in which I use to practise both new technologies and learn the in-depth details about current and old ones. Currently pursuing my CCNP cert. What I would like to do while I take a break between exams is practise the NX-OS as I plan on getting into Data Center. I was thinking about buying myself a Nexus switch off eBay. Problem is which one? Can you guys please recommend a Nexus switch that I can use to study and practise data center techs for the CCNA DC cert? Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Switch from DotNet to Data Science? Posted: 02 Sep 2018 08:18 AM PDT Hi, I am from India. I have been working in an Indian MNC on a DotNet project for 1 year. It's mostly solving bugs and maintenance on ASP.NET VB.NET applications for the client. I want to switch over to Data/ML domain as I have been learning very less in my current position. I am afraid that if I dont switch over, I'll be forever stuck on legacy technologies at a MNC. I am still learning data/ML technologies in my spare time and will continue to do so for the next 1 year. I plan to quit the MNC in 1 year. Is it a safe bet? Or should I just develop my DotNet skills and continue in MNCs? [link] [comments] |
IT Instructor to Help Desk? Am I Screwing myself? Posted: 02 Sep 2018 08:03 AM PDT Hello, I currently am in an interesting career junction... I am only 22 and have the CompTIA Trifecta, and an AS degree in Computer Programming and Analysis (finishing Bachelors Degree now, 2019). I have been an IT Instructor and Programs Manager for the CompTIA Trifecta for the past 1.5yrs at a local non-profit. I cover the A+, N+, S+ exams... recently parent organization has come into shaky grounds and come under local, federal, and state investigations as well as management being terrible... but I still love and enjoy what I do but it is in jeopardy of not continuing and possibly ending this program come December 2018. (but this is not guaranteed) I wound up sending my resume to one of my contacts in a local cyber company, focusing on user education in security. I did get an offer, but it is at a Tier 1 Tech Support level, that is supporting their end products integration into the customers environment. This is one of the highest rated places to work in my area. Also, I managed to find an adjunct teaching position so that I can continue to do that as it is something I am passionate about. This does come with a pay cut, down to around 40K + ~18k in profit share, compared to my current salary of 55k + 15.4k stipend. Is this something that is going to increase my marketability or should I just stay where I am as a Programs Manager until the ship sinks or floats? Am I making a mistake in my choice to act first, and not after? Thanks all. [link] [comments] |
InfoSec Analyst to InfoSec Project Mgr? Posted: 02 Sep 2018 07:26 AM PDT Hello ITCareerQuestions, first-time poster here. I currently work as an infosec analyst, specializing in risk and vulnerability management, and am looking at potentially transitioning to a project management role. I've been in my current role for just over a year and have learned a ton about infosec risk management. The most fun aspects of my job have been leading projects and working on process improvements to shore up my employer's security program. There is currently a PM-role opening in our unit and I am thinking about applying for it. Ideally, I would like to take my career into a more strategy/leadership route given that I enjoy having responsibility for things (projects, people, etc.) and setting and executing a vision/strategy. I am also in the process of studying for the GSEC (already paid for the attempt, employer will reimburse upon passing the exam) and am hoping to sit for the CISSP within the next 1.5 to 2 years (employer would also reimburse the attempt upon passing). Understandably, infosec analyst and PM job duties and responsibilities are very different -- though there is currently some overlap for me -- and I am wondering whether that would give me a better shot at going to where I would like to go. In addition, would being a PM with an infosec background make me valuable on the job market? My colleague mentioned it might be great to have a Project Manager with both a GSEC and CISSP. If you were in my shoes, what would you do? Thanks in advance for any and all insights! [link] [comments] |
What book or certification track teaches you about certificates and the like? Posted: 01 Sep 2018 12:27 PM PDT I'm a fairly newbie to the IT world and studying for my CCNA. I don't really understand how certificates work, is there anything that can get me up to speed? Thanks. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Sep 2018 04:01 PM PDT Hey y'all. As the title says, I have started my associates degree in information technology. My school has a few options for what to specialize in. I'm unsure of what I want to do, so I am very open to any of these. Which are the most interesting or in demand?? If your job is to do one of these things, could you explain all that you do? The choices are: Cloud Computing, Cyber Security, Database Specialist, Geographic Information Systems, Network Administration, Network Infrastructure Specialist, Programming and Mobile Applications Development, Virtualization, Web Development Specialist, Thanks!!

Please Critique My Resume For An Entry-Level Network Engineer Role Posted: 01 Sep 2018 03:36 PM PDT Please go through my resume and let me know what can be done to improve upon it. I have a CCNA and an Engineering degree from a foreign university, and right now I'm looking for a job in USA. (I'm an American citizen so no issue with work visa and stuff). Thank you!

Where to start for a beginner. Posted: 01 Sep 2018 06:49 PM PDT I have looked at maybe getting a A.S. degree for network security but before I do that I would like to know what books I could read or what should I start teaching myself. I know there are so many resources but not sure where I start. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |
Using a mock project for interview Posted: 01 Sep 2018 06:26 PM PDT Has anyone here used a mock project detailing a network implementation or design to showcase your networking skills in an interview and is it a good idea? [link] [comments] |
I need to find a new job soon, preferably helpdesk for one or two sites. Any suggestions? Posted: 01 Sep 2018 03:19 PM PDT I am a 20 year old guy who is currently studying IT in college and working towards my A+ certificate. I work at a consulting company with my boss who is my dad and I mainly work at one site. I have a year of experience working in IT now, I have experience in troubleshooting and resolving user errors, doing general PC maintenance with Windows OS like removing malware and backing up data. I fix Chromebook laptops and I also have experience using Active Directory and managing users in a domain. I have worked on projects involving implementing and configuring VoIP phones as well as implementing laser printers. Ideally I would like to work on Windows computers and do some similar things as I have before, as well as work more with networking solutions and configuring firewalls. The goal at my next occupation is to be hands on, but I would like to work mainly at one site and not have to travel around and go to multiple customer sites or homes. Does anyone have any suggestions? Even something to narrow down my search query on websites like Indeed and Monster. Thanks a bunch! [link] [comments] |
