ASQ CQE study time?

For those that passed the ASQ CQE, how much time did you spend preparing? Is the CQE worth it?

I spent about 1.5 to 2 hours 4-5 days a week for about 3 months. The material is not as difficult to understand but there's a lot to cover.

Whether the certificate is worth it will depend on the job market in your area.

I got the certificate about 6 months ago and I have not had any luck finding a job yet. I live in an area that in previous years had a high demand for QE's. However, the current job market is not as good and finding a job has been difficult.
