If they think you are young, they will probably think I am still a baby
being only 19. I have my CCNA, 1/4 CCNP and actively seeking MCSE 2k. I
also have an AA degree and also seeking my bachelor degree in computer
science. I plan on getting my CCIE within the next few years. I have
worked with an internet company for more than three years now. I have
been told that I am impatient and immature, but I am not one to just sit
around. If anyone can help me dispel some of these notions I would be
greatly thankful. Also if someone veterans can give some pointers/tips on
how to make it in this industry, that would also be helpful. I hope all
this hard work pays off!
