Question for you since you're here. I'm in the process of getting a cert right now for A+ and then moving onto a network cert (cisco or Net+ not sure yet). With those two certs how easy would it be to jump into a networking role with no previous networking experience?

For a NOC role, you'd be way ahead of most applicants.

I personally decided to go with Cisco over Net+ because back in 2013 the Net+ covered stuff from the 80s that wasn't used any more. Also, Cisco gives companies incentives for hiring a certain number of Cisco certified individuals with discounts on equipment.

I think the Net+ would give you a more well-rounded understanding of networking in some aspects, but Cisco does a great job of training specific to their stuff while also teaching universal fundamentals.

Also, the further you go in Cisco certs, the better your skillset will be, which demands higher pay.
  • Associate level (CCNA)
  • Professional level (CCNP, but I think they changed the name of it)
  • Expert level (CCIE)
