A few days ago I passed the MuleSoft MCPA-Level-1 exam to earn the MuleSoft Certified Platform Architect – Level 1 certification. It has been a wonderful experience which I would like to share with you.
I am an Information Technology Administrator in a software solution providing company. I have extensive experience with networking and software support. I hold CCNA and Microsoft Azure certifications as well. i am an avid learner of new technologies. I have been working with my present employer for the last six years. I have been working in my present position for the last 3 and a half years. For quite some time I had a feeling that there are no career growth opportunities left for me in my present organization. This is the maximum post available with them. This barrier has made it impossible to grow in financial terms as well as professionally. Considering these factors I decided to switch the job. Soon I came across an opportunity in a well-known software house. I did very well in the interview and test. I was selected but they said that I need to get acquainted myself with the MuleSoft Anypoint platform as I have to manage it as a part of my new job role. Keeping in view the job responsibilities they suggested me to go for MuleSoft Certified Platform Architect – Level 1. I had 3 months to complete the task as it was the time which I needed to get released from my present job after final notice. I started gathering the material for the preparation of the exam. For the authentic training material, I have always trusted Marks4Sure. It is because of my previous certification experience with Marks4Sure. The comprehensive training package from Marks4Sure that includes PDF and Testing Engine is prepared according to the course outline provided by MuleSoft.

With the focused training material, I was able to complete the preparation in two months. To make myself further safe, I took two more weeks for a thorough revision. After two and a half months I took the MCPA-Level-1. I was able to succeed in my first attempt. I secured 83% marks. Now I am a proud MuleSoft Certified Platform Architect – Level 1 and looking forward to joining my new job next week.
In my opinion, the right training material and an organized preparation plan can always win you the exam.
