Hello everyone, I just completed my uni course (Computer Science, Digital System Security) and am wondering if I should take up CEH to aid me in finding job in the security sector.

I think not a problem for comp science student to get IT security job.

I don't have any IT project need CEH .

Mostly Crest , GCIH , CISSP , CISA .

Hey, thanks for replying. But currently I'm unable to land any junior roles at all. Currently at a lost.

Can try govt agencies too like GovTech, CSA, CSIT, DSTA, DSO, LTA, PUB and other ministries for degree holder.

Otherwise can look for pte sector or GLC roles in ST, Ensign, Big 4, Accenture, Cognizant, Palo Alto, McAfee, Symantec, BAE Systems and etc.

FYI, CEH is considered entry level cert. Most companies would prefer SANS certification and CISSP/CISA/CISM/CRISC for more senior roles.

It is not the certification or lack thereof ... the most critical consideration is the source of your CS degree. For example, if your CS is from NTU, it will be shocking that NCS rejected your application (all else being equal).
