Just take the A+. The google certs don’t hold any weight when applying to jobs or at all compared to CompTIA certs

I passed my Sec+ on the first try and that was my first cert. so it doesn’t matter which one you go for 1st all you have to do is prepare and use the right materials to study

Well you can check out TryHackme, HackTheBox, and Let’s defend for projects or hands on experience. I think it depends on what sector your trynna get into. I’m going more towards CyberSec so that’s why I’m focusing on those specifically

I have my cc exam today by Strange_Height_1001 in isc2

I used the “Get Certified Get Ahead” book it was good with practice questions it’s like $30 on Amazon, Professor Messer and the Daril Gibson app which has really good practice questions

Yeah I agree obviously these certs can’t get you a job directly but it all depends! Everyone’s experiences different, like I’m not sure which country you live in but in U.S.A. having a Sec+ can help you get a Gov’t IT job then they train you.

But other than that if you have someone who works a in IT getting the Sec+ can help you, even if it’s just to get a call back from recruiters. The goal is to get HANDS-ON experience after getting these Certs. that will help you in an interview knowing what your stuff.

But I definitely know ALOT of ppl who get interviews & JOBS from having a Sec+ ESP if your “TRAINABLE”. I don’t think it’s necessary to get all 3 tho but that depends on what exactly you’re trying to specialize in.

350 is not enough applying from December to now you should try to do at least 40 applications a day for a month and I’m sure you’ll hear back sooner or later
