CISCO as a Career

“According to World Bank only 40% people out of 7 billion people on earth are connected through internet ”

9.8% people have high speed connections in this world.

Every second is important for any organization. This can estimated from the fact that during page slowdown of just one second cost the company to lose $1.6 billion dollars in sales each year. Therefore, to resolve that problem companies require candidates who have good knowledge of networking and know how to configure networking devices and troubleshoot basic connectivity problems in less time?
