    BTW, take the ACE exam. its free and you can take it online. that would be a plus too

    thats for anybody wanting to get into the network security field

    yo Im researching this right now and I see they offer a 3 day course to prepare for it. do you know if that course is free ? im looking at this

    https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/content/dam/pan/en_US/assets/pdf/datasheets/education/PANW 201.pdf


    Also do they have a packet tracer type of emulator for PA? I want to play around with it and get some hands on stuff to learn it.


    Also just applied for Cisco's Global Cyber Security Scholarship program, hope I get it.

    ? damn I just stumbled across this link they have the answers for TONS of cert exams. I can say the ICND2 one is totally legit its the exact same ones from that app I used. Ill probably use this for security+ too lol.

    Damn, Detroit Lions called me about an IT internship set the interview up and everything. Wish me luck.


    It's one of them interviews where I get interviewed by 3 people at once. I hate those types ? always throw me off.

    just look at it as a regular convo with ya boys. ask them questions, ive always found it easier to interview with someone/group if i approached it very casually. Yes its for a job but 70% of the interviews look at to see if you can get along well with them and the team. the rest is if you know what youre doing... especially in IT.

    ? that ?

    It's all good. Sometimes you will learn if you even want to be around them on a daily basis when interviews are that way.

    I've interviewed people and know a lot of people who've interviewed people.

    If you've gotten your foot in the door to interview, likely your resume already qualified your foundation of knowledge in their eyes.

    After that 3 main things matter.
    1. Your potential to learn what they have going on
    2. How well your personality meshes with theirs
    3. What you know/your foundation of knowledge

    This is the way it usually goes unless they are desperate and filling a void for a critical on going project.

    If you are a quick witted person and it's obvious you have the potential to, most people will feel you can "pick things up" as you go. It's usually how it goes anyway because you can't know everything and every place has its own spin on things.

    Internships can be good. I know a girl who interned at Apple and got hired on and a couple of programmers who interned at Cisco, got hired on fresh out of college, and are doing some really good things there too.

    ? that ?

    This. Handle it like a regular convo with plenty eye contact. I had a 5 person panel interview for a networking position and treated it like a regular conversation with each individual and even shot questions back at them about each of their departments. I got the job but ended up turning it down because my current job promoted me when they heard I was going to quit. Just make sure you on your ? and ask plenty of questions.
