  • Thank you so much. I have been watching your videos and i was considering doing CCNA certification, after watching your other videos about cloud certifications and this, i will focus on the other things you suggest.

  • Thank you very much , i was going to do that certification.But now i am thinking of doing cloud ceritfcation. Thanks again.

  • Isn't cyber security jobs a lot harder to get into with little to no prior experience in the IT field?

  • I got a job as a Network Engineer with little networking knowledge and no cert because I was in Service Desk at the same company and worked hard, I got pretty lucky.

    In a hybrid business with on-prem equipment, knowing what switches and routers are and the OSI model was helpful, but just scratched the surface and not having a more complete knowledge was been a challange.
    Understanding basic or fundamental concepts that CCNA introduces has also helped when its come to learning for and understanding the cloud as we migrate across.

    Maybe people dont need to take the exam if they can get a job that isnt looking for a cert, but I would still recomend people study the CCNA content. The knowledge will be beneficial.

  • It depends on the role your applying for. If you want to work for a big corporation or get started in security, you need to learn the basics of networking.

  • i just completed network administration certification , and for 3 months i learnt for networking fundamentals almost like ccna course, but in faster and more intessive way. Now i am on ccnp encor course, and my question is – if i am "equal" to someone who has ccna and ccnp certification or no?(normally if i pass the ccnp encor exam)

  • I love Youtube recommendation when it showing me this video after a day of me paying for the exam 😂😂

  • I am kind of confused about CCNA exams. Even though we can get hands on practice and experience in real life, some of the worksites in my country still asking for CCNA certification. I only interested in cybersecurity. What should I do? With all due respect, could you please give me advice on what I should do?

  • Sir im from non IT background can you suggest me any IT course which can land me a job? Currently I am planning to do CCNA but if there is any better option please help me.

  • Which do you recommend I get between Linux+ or aws cloud practitioner? Which has more job opportunities?? I only have money for one of them at this time.

  • I have CCNA certifications 2005…am on course study for cybersecurity . Do i still need network+

  • What certification is good ?

  • This did not age well in 2023

  • Maybe it's the area I live in but I'm finding 75% of the IT-related jobs require Networking knowledge and or experience.

  • Does this apply to sys admins as well? I was going to pursue the RHCSA before tackling AWS/GCP.
