Information Systems AnalystWhat's the job title?
From the description it sounds like more of a administrative/business-type role than a technical role. That isn't necessarily a bad thing if that's what you want to do, though.

a title is a title unless you can use it.is "Tech Lead" really a good title?

no extra $ tho technically i got 12k bonus more.. but no yearly extra

I'm going to go through all the Professor Messer videos on youtube and put all the notes and pictures from the video into note form on a blog. I think it will be a lot easier for me to study without having to go through each video every time I want to get some information.

After I go through all of Messer's videos I'm going to obtain this bookand post whatever study guides I can online with it. I was aiming at having this A+ in May but after talking to some people I think I can be ready for it in about 45 days, we'll see though

Im in the same boat as you. And honestly, you have likely collected alot of great knowledge from the many different organizations you have worked with, as well as great contacts. I dont see any reason why you cant flip over to the buyer side and leverage your knowledge there. I think thats my plan down the road though i am still enjoying the sales engineering side of things currently.havent checked this thread in a long minute... seems like most of the recent convo is around entry/mid level sh*t

Sup guys, I was browsing this forum and found this thread and it is a damn gold mine. I'm working on my two year associates in Applied Science in my colleges Network Security Specialist program and I am in my first semester. Here are my list of classes in the program:
1st Semester:
Windows Client, Python Programming, Intro to Cisco Networking, Exploration of IT(Online), and IT Security Awareness(Online).
2nd Semester:
Windows Server, Linux Server, English 2, Psychology of Human Relations, Windows Powershell, and Cisco Networking 2
3rd Semester:
Intrusion Detection Systems, Introduction to Computer Forensics, Preparation for an IT Career, Business Ethics, Technical Reporting, Emerging Trends in Security
4th Semester:
Penetration Testing/Network Defense, Firewall/VPN Technologies, Network Security Design, Network Security Internship, Contemporary American Society, and I have to choose between 4 electives. Cisco Networking 3, VOIP Convergence Fundamentals, Java Programming, and Website Development-XHTML
And the kicker, this whole program is gonna be like 6500 dollars about.
I plan on getting a Help Desk or Desktop support job in the next few weeks, because I have learned so damn much from just the first month it's crazy. There are already a good amount of people in my program that have already learned enough info to have jobs, from Help Desk to Networkers, there are even people already network admins, from just the first month of the semester with out certificates lol. I plan on working that Help Desk or Desktop support job until I start my Network Security Internship my 4th semester. Once I finish off my 2 online classes that end in the middle of this semester, I'm going to study for and take the A+ and then do the same for the Network+ in the summer.
Here is where my questions begin, after those two certificates I mentioned above, what are some good ones that delve into security that you guys recommend, or should I put off the security ones and look at others? And 2nd, my windows client class this semester directly gets me ready to take the MCSA Exam 70-410, is it worthwhile to take it or should I not? also what are ways I can truly "show out" once I get this Help Desk job? and this thread made me realize that experience is valued over education, I know I will be working a Help Desk job while I'm in school and I will be in a Network Security Internship. So that is almost 2 years of Help Desk Experience and 6 months of Network Security experience. what kinda jobs will that allow me to target once I graduate?
thanks dude, certs were among my biggest concerns.
If you have to work for free doing your internship, work like they're paying you a million dollars.
