Genesys Certification (GCP7 CIV)

[cavagnaro]

Congratulations!

[frdesimo]

These informations are present in the Genesys site, can you tell me if the questions were as difficult as the ones present in the Genesy brochure?
I'm asking that to understand if my knowledge is enough to sustain the exam considered that i'm sure my company won't pay twice for my certification... 
I have studied the course material plus the pdf guides of the release 7.5 and i've a couple of years of experience in gvp from 7.2 release.
Thanks for your help.

The questions in the exam are quite similar to the ones in the certification guide pdf.


But if you have a couple of years of experience...don't worry, normally you should pass the exam.

Yesterday i made it with a 94% of score, now i can go on with the DIV certification...

Congrats!

I'm planning to take the DIV certification (GEO-702).
I was wondering if anyone has taken it.

I passed the exam last September, if you've been on the FRO, FRI, RRI courses and know the course manuals and also have some hands on experience in looking at log files etc, you'll fly through it.

My advice would be to go over those courses I mentioned above.

Good Luck

I think you're referring to the GEO-701 exam because the GEO-702 suggested training comprises FRO, BRD and ARD.
Do you agree?

[mmiah]

Yep your right, you've gone for the one with the Developers flavour.

Sorry guys, but  I think that priya_347sk concern to have some samples of exams is quite a good and natural thing. I am even surprised by the reactions it raised... as if it was a kind of attempt to cheat!!!

Answers from our moderators shocked me as being really politically correct
And what about this answer of Victor saying the post will be suppressed after one week!!!
[b]Is this a new type of censure???[/b]
Is this site really undependent?

Working on sample mock exams is quite common practice to pass real (sorry to say that) certifications like J2EE ones.
They really add something to experience and documentation reading.
They just make you think, manipulate concepts, discover new possibilities.
Like mathematics exercices.
They also make you know if you are ready or not (to avoid having to pay for nothing --> see next paragraph).

I do not believe a lot in Genesys certifications.
- First it is too easy to pass them (fortunately as there is no available mock exam to pratice)
- Second, they should rely on strong documentations formatted like specifications, and there Genesys has a lot to improve.
- Finally, I really wonder if they are not a way of earning money and selling Genesys trainings

If you doubt, just go to http://www.genesyslab.com/training/frequently_asked_questions.asp#cost
To pass a certification without preparatory training it costs 900$
Most common certifications cost around 250$...

From my point of view the certification exam is a good tool to test your knowledge on Genesys.
I took the Genesys certification 2 weeks ago, i'm also Cisco certified and in my opinion the difference between these 2 certifications is that to get Cisco's you need only to work on the p4s, the Genesys one requires hard study and working experience...if you want to study Cisco you can, but it's not strictly required to get the certification!!!
I know that Genesys certification costs a lot of money, but i think that this is a company policy to avoid that a lot of persons tries it.
Regarding the training i think thar Genesys courses are very useful, a attended a lot of courses and i hope to have the possibility to take other courses in the future.

I think that if it is too easy then why so many failures around? For me personally was not easy because many questions of products I don't handle or scenarios that my job doesn't allow like multiple tenants, or InfoMart, reality of Genesys customers here is far from getting to those scenarios described. Interesting however to see what else I had to learn and try at lab. So for my opinion you must be very lucky to be able to test and play with all those scenarios described and more to be able to deploy all of them easily.
Good for you lucky one
