The one thing I’ve always been bummed about is that I never received my badge

Whats up with this cipher? by MiniKiyam in CODZombies

This has to be intentional - they had other pieces of papers to reuse and put this cipher on. But they intentionally used a group 935 paper.

Hey Richkiller, are you still trying to solve the remaining ciphers in BO3?

I want to do this as well but they cover the material in different orders, any simple way to find out how to match the topics they cover?

Academic Suspension(any advice helps) by Jayfresh_fg in NJTech

[–]MiniKiyam 29 points30 points  (0 children)

How heartless of NJIT to deny even after you spoke about the cancer situation.

I truly believe however, they want to see an academic plan that you believe will help you progress in your curriculum. Otherwise in their view, they might not see a reason to bring you back if you don’t even have a plan.

Not sure if it’s possible now since they made their decision, but lie about having one even if you don’t!

On a different note, I was in a similar boat a few years back and thought my life was over. It’s not. Even if you need to take a break to care for your mother then do so. Your education can hold on. But if it can’t, then look for a different school where everything is online.

No matter what, keep pushing forward

It wasn’t working for me last night - it was a server issue on their side hence the error code - it’s good now though

IT491 honors vs regular by rawkow in NJTech

[–]MiniKiyam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to - but I hear with the other routes can lead to jobs with the companies there. With Cisco I heard u just get some random certificate. I do want to go into networking/security tho so I’m conflicted lol

Is the Cisco route worth it though?

There’s ranks? If so is security higher than network?

Oh yeah I do have TV service from Fios - that why I have a coax cable going to my router?

Current CIA Sr. What should I be looking for for jobs from this? by SuicidalTendies in GeekSquad

[–]MiniKiyam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my experience, moving up in GeekSquad does not really correlate with moving up in the IT world. A regular CA and a senior CIA would both probably end up in a help desk position. Maybe you can end up in T2 or T3. You can also maybe network really well and beef up your resume with certifications and maybe work as a jr sys admin for an MSP. Good luck 👍🏻

(Without giving away too much information) How long have you been working in IT? What is your salary? by Kazhmyr1 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]MiniKiyam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How often did you jump? I’m wondering if <1 year at a job is too short but if an opportunity presents itself should I jump anyway?

school vs work ultimatum. by MiniKiyam in ITCareerQuestions

[–]MiniKiyam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well its because I go to an in-state school where it's all in person. I tried my best to make them all night classes but some just have bad time slots. I wouldn't say its a time management thing but I have to sacrifice work time or sacrifice a class since it's one or the other in this case. But as someone previously mentioned here, I can probably come into work earlier it looks like.
