Kali Rookie looking into multiple certificaitons

[snowmagician]

I have been looking into

Certified Ethical Hacker
OSCP
CISSP

and I have learned the following

CEH - Pure knowledge - The test is online, correct answer 70% of 125 questions given within 4 hours and you now have CEH
OSCP - No test - practical at the end and it will depend on whether you can successfully complete the project in 24 hours
CISSP - Intended for managers - very difficult test and requires 5 year experience and requires many months of preparation before the test

Which one should I go for? On job websites there are more positions available for CEH holders but OSCP gives the student more practical skills. I am leaning towards OSCP because I am very weak at memorizing information

Thanks for your time and I am going to have a wicked time with Kali~~

I vote for the OSCP...just as you said, it's a purely practical exam. I don't hold the CEH myself, but know some people who do. It's a multiple choice test like any other; good information, but, as with all multiple choice tests, it's not an accurate measure of actionable knowledge.

That being said, if you go for the OSCP, be prepared for some hard work!
