Jim Shupe is a Network Engineer for Wachovia Bank in Charlotte, North Carolina. He enjoys what he does, spending his days implementing customer requirements for connectivity and design solutions. Being a CCIE is not a requirement in his position, nor is it a prerequisite for him to advance within his organization. So why then would he choose to spend so many long hours studying and practicing for the CCIE Security lab—particularly when he already holds a CCIE in the Routing and Switching track?
“I have to keep up with the pace, so to speak,” Jim says, referring to the fact that some of his colleagues are double CCIEs—in both the Routing and Switching and Security tracks.
And one might argue ‘keeping up with the pace’ is what got Jim started on his path to earning his CCIE in the first place. “I had some CCIE friends before I was even in the computer network arena,” he says. “The more they told me [passing the CCIE exam] was a challenge, and how few CCIEs there were—it was something I just had to try.”
