Passing The CompTIA Linux+ Beta Exam (XK0-005) // After six weeks of studying, I took the $50 US CompTIA Linux+ beta exam in mid-February. The new exam was to go live this week but got postponed until Tuesday, July 12, 2022. I did find out that I passed the beta exam by ten points to earn my first new certification in 17 years.
I informed the HR person at the three-letter agency I worked for and the manager at my government I.T. job. The HR person was happy to check off the checkbox for a newer DoD-approved certification. The manager told me that I was now on the fast track for a fulltime employee position. After eight years on the contract, I could be getting a new job thanks to my new certification.
