I am totally new to Salesforce and since I’m in change management, I see a lot of Salesforce implementation roles out there on the market. Should I start with the Salesforce associate exam, or should I start with the Salesforce administrator certification? The associate exam is marketed as the most entry level, but I see some people say it’s super super basic. Should one with no experience go straight to the admin certification?

You should not start with the admin certification. The associate should be first. Yes it is basic

Been living in a luxury building for about a year and start noticing that I have a mild cough when I’m in the building. Thought it’s just something residual after my cold but then I went for a week out of town and it disappeared completely only to start again when I got back and stepped into my building. Anyone experienced anything like that? I’m not going crazy, am I?
