For audit roles, definitely.

Audit yes, but probably more CISA. Advisory go for CISSP.

I'm in cyber and I have my cisa. Slightly useless but the firm gave me a $1000 bonus for passing and paid for it. Currently working on the cissp, but that book...........

Don't use the official ISC2 book.

SA1 what did you use

How thoroughly do they look at experience after you pass exam? Would some ERP implementation (both technical and functional) experience count towards some of their experience criteria?

CISSP for dummies. Under 600 pages to the point. Has all the required info you need to pass the exam

Is there anywhere that has practice questions/ flascards?
