I like such kinds of videos, keep them coming.

Thanks! Will do!

Good info thanks

Glad it was helpful!

Been watching alot of IT job videos lately. Seeing this video makes me wish I had went down another career path earlier in life. But, it's never too late to change.

[@janatsharma]

I'm 28 and I want career shift in IT But I don't want to do 4 year degree

[@Dmmr114]

@@janatsharma I just turned 40. I'm only doing a 2 yr program and getting some certifications. Maybe if I get into the field, I'll work on a Bachelor's so I can get one of those really good paying jobs.

[@SkillsBuildTraining]

That's correct David. It's never too late, and by using the IT Certification route you can get into IT relatively quickly.

Morning. Please if someone have directly azure expert certification of Microsoft, dors it include az-104, az-900 and az-500? Or is it necessary to get those associate levels before getting expert level?

[@SkillsBuildTraining]

Thanks for your question donald. It really depends on which Azure certification path you are planning to take. This information should help you decide: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/ Hope that helps.

[@gebesimben]

I am holding CISSP CISM AND CSIRC and I earn a big ZERO unfortunately. I think it depends on the country you live. I live in Turkey and nobody cares about my certifications. They only care about how much I can make them earn with the minimum salary. They are willing to use my certificates to get new and expensive projects while making me work very hard and pay me less.

[@SkillsBuildTraining]

Thanks for your comment @gebesimben. You might want to look at changing jobs.

[@wesfields9322]

I hope you are willing to travel. Especially since you understand English and write English well. One of the honest workers I've ever met was a veteran from turkey. Good luck on your journey

[@gebesimben]

@@wesfields9322 thanks for the support. I am willing. Hope I can find a job abroad. Then my certificates will have a meaning I presume. You know, they are really expensive when we consider our currency is twenty times less valuable compared to usd and euro. Even maintenance costs of certificates are high, especially if you have 3 or 4 certificates. Godspeed to me and all the people that are in my shoes.

Is it worth it to get the Comptia CySA certification? I have the Security+ and haven't landed a job...

[@SkillsBuildTraining]

Hi Brittany, Thanks for your question. Yes, it's worth getting your CompTIA CySA certification, even though you haven't landed a job yet. Having more advanced certifications set you apart from other interviewees, and also makes you more technically knowledgeable at future interviews. You may also want to take a closer look at why you haven't secured a job yet. It could be one of the following. 1 - Qualifications vs Job Fit 2 - Your Job Search Skills 3 - Your Cover Letter and Resume 4 - Your Interview Skills Hope that helps.

[@robphin85]

If you have no networking experience you most likely won’t get hired in cyber security because that’s not considered an entry level position. They expect you to have networking experience before you start working in cyber security. I would recommend Getting your CCNA and working in networking for a year or two and then applying for cyber security job. By the way that’s what a recruiter told me. I also have a friend that did cyber security boot camp and he got CEH and sec+ and he can’t get a job because he has no networking experience.

[@SkillsBuildTraining]

@@robphin85 Thanks for that contribution.

[@wisebo8226]

@@robphin85 your absolutely right! I honestly think certification are nothing if you don’t have at least 1-3 years of experience. I recommend getting your foot in the door as a help desk and move your way up.

CISA is not included? Why?

Certifications do not pay salaries. I have 4 of the qualifications on that list so I should be earning north of $ 500,000 ? Going to have to talk to my boss methinks.

[@BuzzLightyeear]

Is this question a sick joke?

[@nama2418]

@@BuzzLightyeear no its NOT? What's your answer?

[@slappyman50]

ITIL is for entry level service desk/help desk

[@bigslacker666]

Certifications don't pay you anything, they cost time and effort to prep for and pass. :D CCIE for the last 10 years, I remember getting it and my first 6 figure job just about instantly. Just remember that you need experience first and certs second. The IE pays because you'll be working on big impactful stuff. No one wants someone with a cert and no seat time making BGP changes to a multinational corp's routing config. ;)

[@SkillsBuildTraining]

Thanks for that valuable comment Steve.

[@cortneytucker5761]

How would you recommend getting experience. And you’re saying CCIE is a good cert to get correct?

[@bigslacker666]

@@cortneytucker5761 Take an entry level networking job or an entry level IT job that includes networking. Get an experienced engineer to mentor you, volunteer for projects, job hop when ready and so on. Absolutely the CCIE is good cert to get. But get it at the right time in your career, when you have 5 or more years of progressive experience and are ready to take on the type of work that comes with the 6 figure salary.

[@ericfannin8227]

Is it true that Cisco recruiters are waiting outside the testing center basically waiting to offer a job if you passed?

[@bigslacker666]

@@ericfannin8227 That is not a thing that I've seen or heard of. Only been to the San Jose test center myself. However it was my experience that very soon after passing I got bumped to 6 figures at my current job and got a lot of contacts and job offers through my network of colleagues. And even a few years later I breezed through the tech interview portion of an interview loop at a 'big tech' company just because I had the IE. Though I don't necessarily think that's true these days in the cloud era.

[@neymarali9696]

Information security? How can earn

[@SkillsBuildTraining]

Hi neymar, Can you expand a bit more on your question?

[@yahwehkno]

Are these good certs for someone with no experience in IT

[@ITLIFER]

Depends which area of It you want to start in. Every area of IT has intro/foundation certs and then maps to more advanced stuff. So decide first what you want to do, then plan your education path. In my last video, I gave my thoughts on top 5 IT Jobs in 2022. If you decide to pick one those, there is lots info on the internet on how to start on each of those paths. :) the certs mentions in this video are also spot on.

[@NoBody-tz4fb]

The cissp and pmp are not for people with no IT experience lol. less than 150,000 people in the world have a cissp.

[@jeanelderbordes]

@Michael , the PMP is a project management certification not an IT certification. You don't have to be an IT professional to take it. By the way, you still need a minimum of 3 years of project management experience.

[@NoBody-tz4fb]

@@jeanelderbordes I'm aware of what it is, hence mentioning it in the first place. Me stating it was in regards to its difficulty level and the position it is geared towards. Also, it is an IT cert , it's scope being full lifecycle project management. These are gear toward major IT/development projects, i am studying for it now.

[@jeanelderbordes]

@Michael, the PMP certification is meant for professionals managing projects across all kinds of disciplines - irrespective of whether they are from IT, Construction, Telecommunications, Finance, even Healthcare. Not all project managers are IT project managers. That's all I was trying to say. I am an IT analyst myself who's trying to become a cybersecurity analyst or cloud admin/engineer.

[@KenSherman]

#9 I was $154 off (at 150K USD). Not too shabby for a guess❕ My 2nd guess would have been 200k. But maybe that's reserved for the extremely difficult Cisco architects aka CCAr✌🏽. Not too many people know about that elite group. Wait till you hear about how much the exams are and the process you have to go through to pass the Ar❗ 😬😅

Please lose the popping sounds when showing popup visuals on the video on future videos, after the first few minutes, that becomes distracting and irritating. Otherwise well done.

You can earn good money in IT with some experience.

[@tinman3586]

Certifications don't "pay" anything. They aren't vouchers for jobs and neither are college degrees. People don't get these six-figure jobs because they have stuff like this, it's usually a combination of work experience, then credentials, then who you know.
