Quite simply, if ISC2 requires 3 years of experience, get the 3 years of
experience. Take a lower paying job, for now, work your way up. Then
take and pass the test, obtain your certification, according to their
rules, and then look for those multi-million dollar jobs that require a
CISSP.
And by the way, forward me those high paying CISSP jobs, because I must
just be looking in the wrong place. ;-)

Subject: Re: CISSP without experience
I too am intrested in the same & facing the problem that all the jobs
interviewed for required CISSP but i too lack experience. Can we just
take the CISSP and exam and pass it?
Anyone who has done it?

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?
