I reckon the best job to prepare for CCIE is on a support helpdesk doing tier 2 support. If your experience isn't sufficient start off on tier one and work your way up.

Subject: OT:---------------Need advise on selecting type of JOB
Folks, Need advise on selecting type of JOB ...
I am working on a DATA center migration project under a CCIE (architect).
This is the first time I am working on a real router(passed CCNA twice, CCNP
expired, CCIE lab failed twice). I do less work on cisco gear and more work
on visio diagrams, KVM over IP devices. This project is supposed to be
finished in 3 months but getting streched for ever.
As a result my goal of learning new cisco stuff on a short period of time by
myslef is getting diluted. But when I see the CCIE guy doing things it does
teach me lot of things BY LOOKING OVER the shoulder.
At the same point there are lot of openings in OPERATIONS support coming up
which I feel will get me more hands on.
What should I do? My goal is to learn new things and get CCIE (bench mark).
Things I learnt:-
Hardware knowledge, Fiber types (MM,SM,etc),designing networks by extending
VLANs, RSPAN, KVM over IP, basic switch configs)
Thanks!
