Current Events > Just passed my CompTIA Core 1 A+ exam

(+) Yeah! (+)

One down, one to go for my certification. I'm so happy

Congrats. You're probably more qualified than I am

Congrats. If you're looking for your first IT job the A+ troubleshooting method is a really good way to frame your answers to interview questions even if you don't know the answer.

Hell yeah, congrats. I need to renew my CCNP by february

Plus Tc works in retail
you got the skills to go get help desk in-house

Congrats. I finished all my training courses I just have to take the exam but I started a new position in my company and theres so much to learn Im too burnt out to take the test yet so Im probably gonna do it in a few months

Not to be a downer but A+ is kinda worthless. Get role-based Microsoft certs like Azure Fundamentals.

Its not the worst thing to start with though. And you are being a downer.

It is not a magical cert that gets you the best job but its a lot more than nothing.

Wtf
its pretty much the opening path to going into IT support
Yeah sure it's not much on its own but TC can leverage his people skills fon get into a good company with a training plan for advancement.

And you definitely, definitely are being a fucking downer.

Thank you everyone

Yeah, I took the cert because every IT job I looked at required it. I figured at the very least it gets me a foot in the door.
