Very situational basied!! I would say it’s good to know the concepts, but you need to know how to apply the concepts in a situation and pick the best answer THE BOOK THINKS. I reallyy struggles (didn’t pass the first time) because I was choosing the answer I would do in a client situation, but that doesn’t mean that was the “best” book answer, which Is what mess me up. Hope that helps!

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter?

Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree.
