I received my CCNP almost two months ago. About 2
weeks after receiving the cert, I started firing off
my resume everywhere. I received a call from Cisco,
as they were interested in my background. I passed
the phone screening, then passed the brutal face to
face interviews at Cisco with about 7 people. I'm now
working with the IOS WAN Test team. Before this job,
I had about 10 years of experience with desktop
computers, network servers and Microsoft products. I
had a MCSE and a Compaq ASE. I made the switch to
Cisco as I see problems down the road for Microsoft.
I think Sprint Paranet will also hire you with a CCNP.
Now the task of getting a CCIE should be achievable
since Cisco gave me my very own testbed loaded with
seven routers.
Good Luck.
