Dear Fellow Members,
I am a sales and product professional who has a total of 9 years experience in IT; related to selling products indirectly or directly. I started my career working as a product manager for hardware vendors like dell and hp. But was not selling directly.
Later I joined another hardware manufacturer and there was managing sales of its products(Notebooks, Peripherals and Desktops) by appointing distributors. Now recently I started taking interest in selling cisco and sonicwall firewall and fortinet products and did Sales Certification of these products in security.
I have a four years BS in Computer Science, but I never worked as a hardcore techy. Pls advice me is CISSP the right path for me, as I want to leave the "Sales Dept" I have been jobless because of it recently and already have a lot of stress.
At the same time I dont have a technical work experience nor a sound knowledge, but I can try to learn.
If I should go for CISSP, will I get a waiver of 1 year as I have 9 years sales experience and 4 years BS in CS degree also.
Thanks in advance. Haseen
