A couple of weeks ago, I made this post over at !asklemmy@lemmy.world asking if I should go back to university. After some thoughtful consideration, I’ve decided to pursue certs; specifically Comptia A+ and then the Network+. I’m almost done with an A+ study guide I bought and feel almost ready to take the exam. But I’ve also wanted to hear about your experience on getting tech certs and the career that followed. Any advice is welcomed. Thanks in advance.
As a network engineer, don’t bother with the network+. Go straight to the CCNA, because if you decide to do other network cert the other vendor will likely have a fast track exam to their CCNA equivalent.
