How relevant are CEH, CHFI,LPT and CISSP in securing a job in security industry?

They certainly don't hurt anything.  I look for experience, knowledge, and skills, and then the certs are a bonus.  They mean nothing by themselves.  If you are thinking of going into business for yourself, having a cert is even more important.  It especially helps when you are communicating to someone non-technical, like insurance providers, CEO's, etc.  They like to see the cert designations.

There are bunches and bunches of campus security jobs in the the So. Cal area. 1st you can check out any of the school websites such as USC, UCLA, CSUN, Cal State etc. You can also check out job listing on Craigslist.org or if you still can't find a campus security job, a lot of film studios hire security to watch gates and patrol areas i.e. Warner Bros. Universal, Sony.\nThose are just a few places to start. Happy Hunting!

Just about anybody can get a job as a private security guard.  Typically the only requirement is a pulse.\n\nIf you are talking about some of the elite professional security companies - they will want either law enforcement or military combat-arms experience.  (And then they will be very picky about who they take.)

There is a tendency amongst employers within the security sector to employ ex-military personnel, although most of these positions are accredited now, in that they are regulated. Each security officer must be qualified. This would be an advantage to your husband, since his military training would encompass most of the requirements. I would also suggest a consultation position since large security firms often use ex-militarians to provide expert advice. It really depends on whether he wishes to remain in government related positions or move towards the public sector. There are any number of employment possibilities he could pursue which do not have to relate directly to his training, unless he prefers to remain within these confines. I would suggest that he joins many of the job sites on the web which can tailor searches to his specific requirements. 'All the jobs' and 'Monster' are a good place to start. The local job centre are also on line so you would be able to assess his prospects for securing the type of work he requires. I would say that Wales has a reasonably high rate of unemployment, comparatively.

People with a certification in Information Security (just make a search on Yahoo for it...there are two major certification resources for it) are becomming highly sought-after.  It will give you a leg-up as not many people have it.

Probably any school you choose in the US. This is the "most Popular" degree and thus the money maker for colleges. As far as I know only James Madison in Virginia offers a masters in Internet security and I do know that the ones teaching it cannot even keep the Universities computers safe and all updates are riddled with mistakes just like anywhere else. Proves there is no "expert" at Internet security.I would shop for the very cheapest name recognized school so that any job you apply for knows the schools reputation and you get the bonus points in the interview.

Not from NI but have spent some time working in Security.  CTV security can be very boring but enjoyable if tracking someone, industrial can cover a multitude of jobs and I haven't tried retail.  Security companies will place you in the crapiest jobs first and then leave it up to you to prove yourself and then approach them for a move to a better position.  Some companies will put you into prestige jobs straight away depending on your experience and stature, but these can be few and far between.  Some of these jobs can be very rewarding as long as you are prepared to put yourself forward with suggestions for improvement, but don't step out of line as they will get rid of you before you can blink.  Hope this is of some use!!!

To be an IT professional you should be either a B.E, M.E or MCA candidate for the recruiter to have any kind of interest on your profile, as far as qualification is concerned this the minimum and also it required that u have atleast 70% aggreagate in your academics.\n\nAs far as skill is concerned \n* You should be good in English be it in speaking or written (but speaking mainly)\n\n* Its required that you have good knowledge and programming skills in atleast one language say C, C++, java etc.\n\nWell when you have 70% in B.E then you pass the first phase and you will be called to take a test\n\nThe second phase is to clear the aptitude test that is conducted by the IT companies. If u do well here too u are through to the third phase\n\nThe Third phase will most probably be a group discussion where you will be given a topic and asked to discuss in a group. (here your command over the english language is very much tested and your body language observed)\n\nThe final phase is the personal interview where you will be generally test.\n\nGood luck \n\nManoj

The best start towards this goal is to study for and receive Ciso Certifications.\nThe first test you'll need to study for is the CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Assocaite).\n\nNext would be CCNP (Professional).\n\nThen go to the "design path", CCDA (Design Associate), CCDP (Professional).\n\nThere are lot of ELECTIVE certifications for any area in networking that you'd like to specialize in (for example, I specialize in Wirelss Networking).\n\nThe ultimate cert is the CCIE (Cisco Certifed Internetworking Expert) which is very tough to pass, has both a written exam and a LAB.\n\nMost of the study material for this is available on the Internet or you can purchase books on the topic.\n\nI highly recommend that you have a "lab" environment to get "hands on" experience.\n\nAfter receiving your CCNA, a lot of companies will be interested in hiring you into their Network Organization.\n\nGood Luck, Networking is a very exciting and rewarding career field :)

learn everything.\n\nCisco,\nOperating systems, (UNIX, Windows, Linux)\nalso don't abbreviate your words is a fine start. \nwrite like a normal person. \nwhen you have those figured out, then you can learn about security. those come hand in hand.

Depends on what you try to do for work. Your unlikely to beable to get into any security related jobs. But other than that you should have no problems unless your a felon, fail a drug screening, or don't want to work(i.e. Lazy). \nGood luck.
