Re: Cisco Announced change to R&S

They do have an exam. B It is called re-certifying with the written. B How about focus on the training and not worry about who has passed before you. B In the end, we all have to interview for the job. B Remember you will not only be interviewed for you technically aptitude, but your personality as well. B Just my 2cents.
