Why do I want to work at a company? Specifically, why do I care about HR software? In the last interview, the guy said that the person who left role was asked this question and said he didn’t care. And they had to pull strings to get him the job

What’s the best way to study for the Security plus cert. I just moved to the DMV area. I’m going for a GS job has anybody used the comptia websites self pace study guide and cert master practice?

I did years ago. The company I was with at the time used OCI to host instances so I don't know about any other services. My only memory was how terrible the experience was. Some of the VMs were insanely unstable regardless of their use. Reboots took forever even if you disabled update services. It's possible the VMs were poorly built and maintained but I doubt it. Different applications made by different vendors on different VMs would have the same problem. OCI is a shyt service IMO.

I used Mark Ciampa's CompTIA Security+ guide. I thought it was a good read. I did have a good understanding of networking, which is a big part of the Security+ so that helped. But I think Mark's material is easy enough to understand. Or it was to me.

You gonna get your foot in door with help desk? I would say make a list of everyone you know who has a corporate type gig and see if they can get you in door or make connection with IT dept. You would be surprised. Most dont do that but that is quickest way to get hired, you probably overqualified. Thats how you do a quick job hunt.
Any accountants/CPAs in this thread? I'm interested in looking into these certs, i want more bread lmao

I trained Sheng Long and Shonuff
Real talk y'all need to leave the cert game behind and start focusing on this AI shyt. We're at the start of the biggest technological revolution we've ever seen in our lives.
I wanna say this shyt is witchcraft because it keeps blowing my fukking mind
I just built my first ChatGPT based app yesterday and it was easier than logging in and posting on the coli
Right now I'm figuring out how to build my own large language model at home so I won't have to rely on OpenAI's infrastructure and I can customize it to my liking.
I even joined a tech incubator and started working on a pitch deck. I'm gonna try and do a 30k seed round for an AI server to run my custom LLM model.
I've never even attempted to raise money before but this AI shyt got me so excited I feel like anything is possible now.

It did allow me to get trained in desktop support at my work and I did get put up to take over the position once the previous guy got fired. However, it would have required me to switch to a different company, so I passed because the benefits and PTO wasn’t as good in the new company as it is in my current one
