IT Certifications and Careers (Official Discussion Thread)

[-deleted-]

@Regine Hunter for MVP.

I am now taking practice exams to see if I get the hang of all this shyt..........dont feel ready for the Sec+ test and I wouldn't say it is perfect practice, but ExamCompass practice quizzes are cool because they help you remember terms and definitions. Crucial Exams has practice tests that are timed and are closer to how the actual test asks the questions I heard.

For the 1st time in a while I feel like I am actually making progress

I was hoping to avoid certification but the word came down from above . Anyone have Az-900 practice tests handy?

Definitely trying to elevate after I get my Net+

I took it couple weeks back and it was fairly easy for the most part. I believe it was 32 questions with no labs and the wording of the quiz was very similar to the whizlab practice test.

If you go over their guide for a couple hours you shouldn't have any issues passing. Azure fundamentals learning path - Learn

Alright. Yeah I went through their self paced courses like back in November but of course if you don't use it, you lose it. I stumbled upon a few dumps and definitely lost it, so I'm about to spend my work day going over the course again. Depending on how I do and how much momentum I have, I might fukk around and go for the Azure Developer certification soon after. My company playing a dangerous game forcing everyone to get certified while they're looking to get rid of people. If a MF potentially on the chopping block, that's motivation to milk them and then bounce.

I really want to be done with my ccna

I feel comfortable with flsm and vlsm

I have to do ACLs, review CLI commands and notes

But I hope this shyt isn't as hard as everyone says it is

Remembering stuff is not my strong suit....its seriously why I could never pass Biology but i get the concepts for this

As far as web development goes... What's to stop someone from just copying and pasting other people's work and adding it to their portfolio in order to get a job? I would assume people do this all the time... Sometimes I'll just be sitting around working on a project asking myself why not just copy and paste some shyt and tinker it up a bit and claim it as mine... ? I mean as long as I know what's happening in the code, isn't that all that matters?

I see that on Github all the time.

It makes a lot of sense to just do that... No code is really original anyways... If I were starting a restaurant website, why would I start from scratch when I can start from a template or someone else's code and personalize it to my liking? As long as I know what's happening in the code and how to change and fix things, that should be what counts...
