Hello there, im studying network security engineering, and im on my 3rd year. I spend a good time everyday learning and i participate in CTFs usually.
I wanted to attend for the compTIA pentest+ cert after i came to a good package from a cyber security center, offering a 30 hours training on the pentest+ and an exam try for the cert, for a ~380$.
The cert is valid for 4 years, which sounds its too early for me to go for it now, because there wouldnt be as much time if i took it when postgraduation or after graduation, but they told me that companies dont pay attention to the validity of the cert as much as they value that you've achived it at sometime, and that his team all have expired certs and little people keep going for the exam every x time.
I need an advice on this whether should i take benefit from the offer, or it is early and i should wait some more time, espicially that this semester has comfortable university study time. Thanks yall for listening.
And english isnt my main so sorry if i caused confusion.
