Didn't know where else to post this but figured I would just leave it here. Hopefully I can get some kind of job with this.

Congrats! ๐ŸŽ‰ How were the tests? I should probably take some of those too so I can be more than a help desk person.

Funny, I took these so I could become a help desk person. The tests were alright. I used exampremium and professor messer's pdf. Studied for a week for each exam. Did enough to barely pass since I was cramming so much.

Makes me think.

What can you do with these certifications?

Check the box on the application for jobs that make it a hard requirement (mostly just government contracts)

Time for the Cisco certs (expensive though).

FortiNet has free training on training.fortinet.com if you want to get into some vendor specific training. Ignore NSE 1 through to 3. Start at NSE4.
