I'm getting started learning Python & SAS to accompany my soon to come MBA. My homeboy said I should go ahead and get this VMWARE Data Center cert as well with very little hassle (no proctored exam). What do yall think ?

How much experience you got and in what area?

I ended up getting job #2, I start the first week of April. Pays 45k, but I tried to talk them up to 50. I think what really bugs me is that I didn't get a week off between jobs. They said that a higher up is visiting so they want me to start ASAP.

Edit: I also had to do a second interview.

It's weird that I'm already plotting how long I'm going to stay and what I need \want to learn before I dip. I think working retail taught me to never be too loyal.

You started working on you MCSE yet :usure:?

From yall experience do you have to have Net+ to be considered for a NOC job? Im still studying for my retake and I was wondering since thats a entry level networking gig. Maybe seeing some of the stuff im studying in action would help me in my rematch with the net+ exam.

CCNA or JNCIA. Show them that you're familiar with a vendor.

Got an interview with Red Hat for a Cloud Consultant role. They want me to take a technical assessment with HackerRank. Anyone ever take any of these?

I am too interested in NOC engineer roles I'll have a BSc in IT in a few semesters but I don't know what certs to get.

Yeah, they do that so that other recruiter's can't submit you for the same position.

Net+ is worthless breh. I haven't seen a single company ask for it.
