where do you even find jobs with a+/n+/ccna ?

MCP (windows xp cert)
RHCE

RHCE just ticks a checkbox and may help you get an interview for entry level jobs. Having RHCE in no way qualifies you for shit though.

IBM was offering a night shift NOC position to CCNA guys in my town

just saw an 80,000 per year job that was asking for high school and a+

...

I had network+ but it expired, I'm not going to take the test again till I finish uni because it'll just be a waste otherwise

Associates of Applied Sciences - Network Security Degree
A+
IC3
Network+
Security+
Linux+
PMI
CCNA
CCNA Security

Going for my MCSA in Server 2016 at present and after that I'll probably go for LPIC/Linux+

Did all the certification help bring in a good salary

A+,N+,Sec+,CCNA here.

71k a year.

I'm unemployed.

Security+

Working towards CCNA, RHCSA and VCP-DCV6

Anybody take the RHCSA? Any tips?

Do you have a job already? Get your employer to pay for rh300.

Either way the tests give you the DVD image which contains all of the documentation. The most important thing is to learn how to use that documentation, especially learn how to get to the selinux documentation.

Rhca level 2, but a few certs are going to be expiring in a couple of months :( time to recert.

CS degree. 75k software engineer job. Fuck certs.

RHSA

lmao

Basically employers see this and assume you cheated to get those certs. I would not list all of your certs, list like two of the best certs max.

>CCNA

This cert is nuts. If anyone is going for this one, download Packet Tracer. It's a really good network simulator. Calling it packet tracer was really dumb because it's actually a full network simulator. You can access an actual IOS console on all the equipment and command prompts on the PCs and servers.

I make like $45k, but in Desktop Support with an IT degree, and I have no certs. Though my department is willing to pay for my tests to get certs, so maybe.

I've been practicing with it. It's really fucking cool to be able to build your own network and get it up and running.

I've also heard about GNS3, but it's nowhere near as easy to use as PT

I safari trialed some van hasenburger guy and trialed linuxacadamy but that was pretty beginner level and the Lab VMs are not worth it.

I'd say van hasenburger it or youtube + configure your own lab VMs with KVM Virtualbox or HyperV and use:
certdepot.net/rhel7-rhcsa-exam-objectives/

Who is van hasenburger? I tried googling and nothing came up. I've heard good things about linux academy, is it really too basic?

How did you get your first jobs in IT?

We use GNS at trade school but because of the course requirements we had to do exams using some shit on a stick IOS simulator made in the Unity game engine. It might just be because it was the first software I got really used to but I think GNS is better overall.

Linux essentials certified, but that's a super easy
one to get just 40 question multiple choice. I'ts
basically nothing, I want to go after the RHCSA
and AWS Solutions Architect associate.

RHCSA/RHCE or AWS Solutions Architect?

Certs are for people too stupid to get into college or too lazy to put in the work to get a degree.

Here's a better question
What certs does Sup Forums have and do you have a job?
If you do give some cert recommendations

>Tfw they give the answer away in the wording of the question

Associates degree = job at geek squad.

What's the difference? Whether it's college or certs you end up with a piece of paper, only with a certification you end with one that means something.

Piece of paper is only useful for your first job. Doesn't really matter what piece of paper you get.

win xp cert??
what the frig

The difference is probablly $50,000 a year, respect, and the knowledge that you didn't take the easy way.

certified shitposter here

I have both certs and a college degree (B.S. in MIS). The degree isn't really worth shit, and everyone knows it.

Certs don't really mean much either when the shit hits the fan, but at least they are more directly applicable to the job at hand.

certs get you past HR, that's literally their only purpose

Bachelors are good to put on the fridge and for a false sense of superiority. No one gives a shit about them and in the industry they mean nothing

IPC-A-600
IPC-A-610

J.Std is also good. NASA soldering is epik too but a pain in the ass.

Software is for fags lmao at the plebs in this thread

it's canadian cuckbucks so it's actually closer to 50k

Only an A+ at the moment, trying to get my net+ and sec+ this month or early next month.

Then probably Linux+

Do you have a job or do you hope thats these certs will help you get one?

As someone in a completely unrelated field who wants to shift over to IT, can I learn/study this shit on my own and get certified or do you really need on the job experience to have a chance?

A+ would be the first goal, don't have the time or money at the moment to go back to school and I'd rather not waste another 4 years in that shit when I'm already 30

A+
Net+
Sec+
GCED
GIAC
GCIH

I make poop money though

I'm hoping they'll help me get another job. The A+ helped me get the job I'm currently working at.

My end goal is to CISSP certified and land a job role as a Security Architect in 10 years.

What is your current job?

To take a certification test all you need to do is buy a voucher. Anyone can do it at any time. They won't ask you anything you won't learn from text books. Do a search for some practice exams to see what kind of questions they would ask you.

You can study on your own and get certified but experience is still a must. The certifications help tick boxes in HR really and may get you an interview, but experience trumps all.

Repair Tech

A+
Still haven't finished high school though.

A+ and network+
Never used them, never worked in IT. Waste of a loan kek

It's basic for someone who's been ricing linux for 6+ months and understands config files and basic syntax. The labs and grading don't always work and it's more of a guide than a class.

safaribooksonline.com/library/view/red-hat-certified/9780133965803/

Not van hassenburger. I didn't eat dinner yet and was a little hungry. No burgers, it was yougurt.

none, and i'm a network engineer.

suck it

Seriously, do employers actually value your certifications? Do the free shit you get on the Internet have some value or employers only care about the paid ones?

Do certs matter if youre a technician in networking/programming? Does it matter at all once you graduate college?

Kek

When youre starting out, yes. If youre midway through your career and have lots of conections who are worth more than certs, then no.

honestly if you have to ask, then you would probably benefit from having certs.

Bachelors gets your resume read. Anyone's CV without at least a bachelors gets binned automatically. The education doesn't mean shit but having that piece of paper proves you're not a lazy piece of shit who also can't commit to something for the long term. Why would I hire you, invest in your education and training, if you're not willing to do that for yourself?

But are all certs useful?

I have A+ and I'' be taking the 200-105 on monday to be ccna ceritfied. I hope I don't panic on the lab questions like I did for the 100-105.

Also can Sup Forums explain pic related? It just happened maybe an hour ago.

>Also can Sup Forums explain pic related?
viral marketing

I'm not a conspiratard or anything, but the colors coming off that thing is creepy. Is the appearance consistent with other meteroids?

It's a bolide.
If you keep your eyes open outside at night you'll see a couple every year or so.

They're useful in different ways, if you try to get as many certs as possible you're just be wasting your time since different certs are useful in different fields.

It's a good thing that this is a thread asking for what certs he has and not him posting his resume.

You would think that people hiring are familiar with how the renewal process works if you get higher level certs from the same vendor. It's easy to rack up another certification if you just go for another higher level one instead of just doing CEUs.

GNS3 is a fully functional network emulator as apposed to a simulator like PT. You can do actual things with it.

Seems like this is correct, thanks user.

Lots of government (US) jobs have them as a requirements.

Between certs, clearance, and a little networking you can easily get a 80k+ contracting job.

None, I'm only 18 and studying for CCNA and RHCSA at the moment, hope to be able to take them in a month or so

19yo
CCNA
R&S both sems
FCE
2 certs for technician in my secondary school
>goin' for another 2
>>>Poland isnt that bad
>>>>all cisco certs sponsored by school
>>>>>>free education

I'm certified in summing primes under 2 millions.

You are a lucky guy.

certified hood classic

CCIE, CCNP-Sec, CCNP, CCNA, CCDA, RHCT, MCSE, MCSA, Net+, A+

on cruise control now...

Certified in shitposting at 4chin.orc

What do you mean cheated?

Those are all entry level certs I got while I was in college because all my classes were prep classes for those specific certs. I didn't pick them, like I literally had to take a class called CIT - CompTIA Network+, CompTIA Security+, IS 101 - IC3 Certification, etc. Like, all my associates degree program was consisted of class after class getting me ready to pass a certain certification. My CCNA one was four classes that I took through the Cisco Academy website with my professor as the instructor.

This is the kind of shit you will learn how to do in CCNA

>list like two of the best certs max.
this is the way to go guys, add only 2-3 relevant ones on your resume.

Not that guy but you learn Cisco IOS commands in network+ too

no you dont

Yeah you do, I'm studying the network+ now and they went over setting up cisco switches.

Of course its not on the network+ exam. Not sure why they're teaching it.

I already took the class and I'm certified.

They don't teach you Cisco IOS commands.

do employers care about CCNA? i got one through my college 2 years ago

A lot of Net+ classes do include learning how to use IOS on a basic level. In the course I took it was a whole week. It depends on where you go I guess.

Employers list the certs they care about in the job ad.

Most of the ones I've seen want microsoft server cert, ccna, network+, a+, and VMware certs as a baseline, then whatever specific cert for the job like if it's database admin or linux admin or whatever.

Ah, okay. I didn't know that.

Holy shit. I never realised that the cisco test we took could actually be worth something. It was the CCNA routing and switching cert.

CCNA is probably the most valuable imo. Not just in terms of employers that care, but because it teaches you the fundamentals of network architecture at a pretty deep level which sets you up going forward to understand anything you need to learn that's job specific as a network engineer.

But honestly, there's more demand for microsoft certs these days. Every job ad I see for network admins or sysadmins call for microsoft certs as well as ccna.

Yeah, turns out I'm actually autistic and they don't have a cert program being a functioning person.

Gave up and just got on disability and meds. Most of my student debt was forgiven so I only have tiny payments each month or like 20 bucks. I live in low income housing in a bad neighborhood, but I never leave my apartment except for food and everyone just ignores me.

To CCNA fags
Do they teach IP6 there or is this tech is stillborn?

about to get my GSEC

should I worry about PMI or PMP?

IPv6 is widely used, most people don't even realize it when they are...

I got CCNA certified year and a half ago and indeed a good part covers IPv6.

Microsoft's certified develper in .Net or something like that

irl, I've got no clue about it. Just cheated by memorizing some questions, which i guess, is what most people do.
