Good Information Technology Career Resource

The best thing about GIAC is that it has a lot of topics to choose from. It's very helpful and has a lot of resources and materials for the exam. There are not a lot of choices for questions and answers. It's not very in-depth. GIAC is more of a general information security certification.

The exam questions are very good, they cover all areas you would need to know for this role/level! It's not too easy or difficult; it provides real life examples from your day job which helps with understanding how things should be done correctly when implementing technology solutions at work etc., I did find some difficulty identifying what exactly was needed but once identified then my brain could connect dots between different technologies used daily by employees across various departments…

Great experience in preparing yourself before interviews

I found it to be very helpful for my career development, but also allowed me time away from work with some great learning opportunities during this difficult period caused by COVID-19 pandemic which has been quite challenging! The exam was not too hard at all so if you are looking or self study material then just do it!! Don't stress about passing this test because there's no need. It helped build confidence within myself when meeting future employers/colleagues who had already passed these…
