Re: CCIE R&S Lab Exam at Pearson ?

I'll take a dynamipper CCIE (I hate that term) over an experienced non-CCIE
any day of the week. Experience teaches you a lot but it leaves a lot of
holes in you knowledge on areas you haven't worked with. The CCIE covers all
bases technically and operational skills can be learned on the fly
relatively easily meaning you can do most roles comfortably. Working on a
helpdesk (non-TAC) with a CCIE often implies someone doesn't know their own
value or didn't learn good interview skills - I wish that was taught with
the CCIE exam...
