Network certificate

Im bored in my sales job, mainly the product and my plan is to learn new skills in the network field. On the longterm my plan is also to switch to network sales, maybe get a Cisco certificate.

Is there anybody out there in the field of CCNA certificate or sales?

How long did you learn for that?

Meh. They lost video conferencing to zoom; their security portfolio is a joke; move to cloud means less need for networking gear.

I think AppDyamics still does OK, by the rest of the company as a whole is squeaking by.

If you have the chance to get certificates and things like that while doing your current role, I'd say take it. Not sure if there's any one cert that's going to be a magic bullet for finding a new role though.

@antiASKHOLEand @Diablounfortunately i had two Times the same post and answer it here, why im bored. Because after 2 years, i know all questions from customers and always the same process. There is no opportunity to incease salary. Its a niche market with realistic reachable targets and not more growing. I think i have to move. I got bored
