Most Orgs calling themselves Agile arent Agile lol. All of these new Methodologies all are rooted from AGILE from what it looks like lol. I`m planning on getting my Product Owner Cert next month.

Great path to take, if you haven't already looked into instructors, maybe take a look at Applied Frameworks. Not sure if they travel to your area, but I traveled to make Jason's session. Completely hands on- no PowerPoint.

#1: Stop thinking that tattoos and nikes making you stand out is a good thing. You can quickly become the incompetent IT guy that dresses nicely.
#2: If your job is easy as hell, you are not being challenged. Take up challenging tasks when you can, because that is the only way you'll gain anything useful from your current role. It may even gain you recognition (in a good way)
#3: Remember that you just started. If this is your first job within the IT industry, now is the time to try anything that interests you, make mistakes, and learn as much as you can. If you like security, think about pursuing a Security+ cert. There are certs for just about anything, so it really just depends on what you like and where you see yourself in 5, 10, 15, etc years. Now is the time to figure that part out so that you can start planning for it.

Yeah there is. I'm told it was comparable to the outline of the PMP, clearly not as long. Questions that could be answered multiple ways, CSM appeared that way to me. Just really read into what is being asked. A breeze nonetheless. Great class.
Honestly, I only know one person who take that exam, so his opinion could be null in comparison.

Bet, did you notice a difference in recruiters showing love after?

Mann the minute I added ,csm my linkedin inbox received more attention. I also joined Agile Carolinas which plugged me into a network of recruiters and business contacts.
Headhunters will be in touch but keep in mind most recruiters don't have a clear picture of what is truly Agile.

I'm doing a training course on it in a few weeks then taking the exam first week of June.
Is the Sec+ exam easy like the A+ exam?
Edit: Just saw you said you have the cert.
It's all about those buzzwords/certs in your LinkedIn header , headhunters always in my inbox.

I just have to get the Sec+ to get a new position (Radar Systems Engineer). It's a requirement for the contract.
I'll look into the GSEC and see if it will be beneficial for that position.
What did the GSEC do for your career?
Congrats Sneaky !

I'm looking into taking some courses on Coursera and adding them to my resume under "Continuing Education" most BA gigs I've seen want you to know how to manipulated data, etc etc so I need to learn that to make me look more appealing.

Keep in mind BA is a broad term. You have BI BAs, Software Dev BAs, Infrastructure BAs, Financial BAs. All in theory are "middle men" between an Ops/Dev group and business stakeholders.

I learned so much when i took the course, its a hands on course (nmap wireshare, etc). The course covers everything from analyzing packets to Incident Response and even risk management. I know a few managers who hired someone with a GSEC over other candidates that had their CISSP.
