Support for the Start of Your Information Security Career
You don't have to wait until you've spent years in the field to demonstrate
your competence in information security. Become an Associate of (ISC)² and earn
recognition from employers and peers for the industry knowledge you've already
gained.
Participation Requirements
Associate of (ISC)² status is available to those who have gained competence in
key areas of industry knowledge and information security concepts and can pass
either the CISSP® or SSCP® examinations, but lack the years of practical work
experience required for full accreditation. Associates of (ISC)² must also
subscribe to the (ISC)² Code of Ethics and maintain their status in good
standing with (ISC)².

I have a 6 month experience on working professionally in Information
Security, but I have been learning and practicing it in my studies and
now I am looking for a job. Almost all of the jobs require a CISSP,
but you cannot get it without atleast 3 years experience. I did hear
that even without an experience you can pass the CISSP, but you will
not get the certification and then you can go to the employer and tell
him that you passed the CISSP. Anyone have any views or any experience
with it?
