Been studying for my sec+ the past couple of weeks. Why does this shyt seem easier than the A+ brehs?
MongoDB University Online Courses
Next session starts on the 30th. I'm telling you guys, Big Data is where it's at...
The courses are 7 weeks, they do have quite a few developer focused courses but they have something for all facets. On the two courses I've enrolled on in the past (M101P and M102) you are given homework once a week. The homework isn't too bad, you just have to remain focused or you'll fall behind.Can I do this on my own time and is this mainly developer focused?

They have multiple sessions during the year so if you're having trouble keeping up you can enroll for the the next session. It's definitely something I'd recommend for those interested in Big Data.

It wasn't too bad, prior to enrolling I wasn't too familiar with JSON so there was a bit of a learning curve with that but nothing too ridiculous. There are forums where you can communicate with other students enrolled on the course.How was M102? Thats the one I`m gonna take then try and get the cert at completion.
I've been at my helpdesk job for 3+ months now. Would it look bad if I start applying to different jobs already? I don't mind the job it's just that my schedule is trash and they basically lied during the interview. They told me I'd only be on the phone for 40% of the day but in reality I'm answering phones 100% of my 8 hour shift and I literally do not leave my desk. I feel like I'm working at a call center and I'm not learning anything. I don't know how many more times I can just reset someones password, reboot their computer, or flush the dns before I just jump off the top of the parking garage.
I gotta get outta here. They also said there's plenty of opportunity to move up but there's only been one position opening since I've been here. I was considered for it but they ended up giving it to someone who has been there longer than me which was understandable.
I would hold out for 6 months at least. Future employers will press you about it.
Do you have any mid-level certs? If not, focus on that for the next few months.
I was at my last gig for 16 months so I know the struggle. Just change your perspective. Remember that you are blessed to be in this position. That helped me handle it. Its a lot of ppl still trying to break into the field.

Honestly, if you don't need the money I would get out and spend that time just learning new skills, platforms, etc and putting that on your resume. If you have the help desk position down pat, you can just fib the dates from when you started. Nobody will check.I've been at my helpdesk job for 3+ months now.
