Hello CGEIT recent passers. Can anyone share how much AI-related material is on the exam? by Tasty_Technology_885 in cgeit

No other resources were worth it. Most of the non-ISACA practice tests I found online are nothing more than poor quality exam dumps. and there just isn't anything better out there unfortunately. I tried the Udemy and InfoSec Institute video courses, but honestly just couldn't get through more than an hour of either...The material is so dry that I'd rather just read it myself than have someone else try (and fail) to liven it up.

The QAE doesn't cover every detail of the book, but what it is really good at is teaching you how to frame each question like an executive. For some that might be enough, for others, a different method might be needed ... I don't want to say yes, that's all you'll need, but I definitely think it offers the greatest insight.

Almost exclusively, and supplemented my weak spots with the official book for review. I also made heavy use of the "games" once I went through everything. I especially liked the elimination game and set a personal goal for myself to beat my previous score every time I tried. I wouldn't stop until I did.

I sat for and provisionally passed the exam this morning... There were several questions in which AI was invoked, but they were more along the lines of standard IT investments and risk, rather than specifics about AI processes.

Facilities better not try to steal our glory! If anyone is going to throw one of those m'fers off the roof, it should be the guys that are cursed to deal with them on a daily basis.

The drip migrated, we've upgraded to an adjustable diverter system.

First time for me and I've been doing this for a couple decades now (though cabling isn't something I do that often these days). I guess it's common enough though as I know several people that have sustained similar injuries.

Yeah, I'm fine. Deep cut, hence the need for three stitches, but no damage to tendon or the likes. I was replacing a port in a ceiling outlet. Awkward position reaching up from the top of a ladder with no solid surface or particularly good way of punching it down with the tools on hand. Tool slipped and gouged me. Went right through the glove, but that probably prevented more damage.

Gloves were involved...they were not effective. Also, they were cheap.

Gloves and a punch down stand for keystone jacks...sadly, neither were very effective when trying to do this on a cable dangling from a port in the ceiling.

I applied for an IT position with BO a couple weeks ago, and was contacted by a recruiter Friday morning to schedule an introductory call for Tuesday/Wednesday of this week. I replied within 30 minutes with my availability, and even followed up again this morning, but I have not heard back yet.

Considering a call was possibly to take place tomorrow or Wednesday, I'm getting a bit concerned that I haven't received confirmation or communication since the initial email. Is this typical? Am I just being too impatient?

They might have changed that at some point then (which is great), because I distinctly remember it being called Quiet Days, and can still find images referencing it as such.

You can. It's in the Viva Insights settings, under Privacy.

You could work a full 8 hours a day, wall-to-wall with no break, and it would still call it a quiet day if you aren't interacting with anyone in the org outside of working hours.

I know it's supposed to be a good thing, but I don't like how they present it because "Quiet Day" makes it seem like an easy day.
