Depending on experience level, the 11th hour Eric Conrad book. Review the chapters you're a little weak on over 2-3 days and just sit the thing. 5 questions in you'll realize none of it was covered the the book or any resource, and you just need to know your stuff.

I agree with EY1. I spent a lot of time doing the practice questions and when I sat for the test, was annoyed the questions weren't even close. The practice questions help you figure out what you don't know.

Deloitte boot camp + 1 month. I cleared in 97 questions.
The questions are tricky, we have to select the best answer, all look right.
I went through Shaun Harris front to back, and feel this is the best way to prepare.

Has anyone taken the CCRP exam? Currently looking for test prep resources and there are very few. The exam book combo I found on Amazon has mixed reviews and I think the best way for me to prep is to see the questions and get comfortable with them.

I've been a government attorney for nearly three years now and have worked in the same office/division since I passed the bar. I've yet to receive a promotion other than two cost of living increases (in sum, a pay increase of 6k over 3 years). I know this is meager, but I'm mostly ok with it, I just want to see some recognition. On the other hand, it's hard for me to imagine negotiating because (given my inexperience), I don't feel I'd be able to do better anywhere else. Any advice?
