CERTIFIED (Yes/No): By default, we have set it to "No". However, if you are certified, you are asked if your certification expires or not. If you are certified, we ask you to provide us expiry month and year. This increases the visibility of your review.
TIME TAKEN TO PREPARE: This helps the user to chalk out a plan on how many days of effort should one look forward to in order to prepare for a certification. An example is for the ITIL foundation, the preparation time was 14 days (2 weeks).
RESOURCES USED: A reviewer is allowed to enter in free-flowing text what all materials were used to prepare for certification. Kindly ensure that you add authentic sources only. For example, AWS Foundation certification, white-papers provided on AWS's official website were a good source.
DETAILED REVIEW OF YOUR PREPARATION: Kindly make a note of the word length, i.e. 300 words (minimum). This is the heart of the review. Be as detailed and as thorough as you can be. It should be well-structured and non-biased. This will help others who want to prepare for the certification. The art of storytelling comes in handy. So, bring out your inner writer and have at it. You can divide your preparation journey into three paragraphs based on below structure:
- Start with what prompted you to take this certification
- Mention details on your current job and your prior experience
