>sucking corporations dick
Get the one called a "diploma"

CEH
CISSP
JNCIE

>sucking academias dick
Get Sup Forums's approval

no helpdesk experience: comptia
some helpdesk experience: cisco
some industry experience: cissp

connections > experience > any degree > certs > IT degrees

CEH is a fucking joke unless you work in the government because they're all idiots and think it's worth the price

>these days
It never changed.
CCNA
MSCE
Security+
Good luck finding a job you NEET

Is it possible to get a job with these certifications and no degree?

yes, at a help desk making a shitty wage

Yes absolutely, you have to start off as a helpdesk monkey however and work your way up through helldesk. Once you've a few years experience at level 2+ and some certificates you can switch to a more specialised field almost immediately

>people still recommending cisco
>no mention of ITIL or AWS
oh dear

This

ITIL is what's going to get you a high paying job. A lot of comfy jobs have this cert as an asset on job listings

Get AWS/Azure/Google cloud certs

if you use chapstick and have beautiful, moist lips, and don't mind the taste of smegma, you don't need certs or a degree. even if you have a college degree you will unemployed if you don't have a friend giving you the job.

>been working at an intense hell desk for 2.5 years
>studying for my CCNA
>nobody willing to let me work with them and learn their job
is it possible to move into a jr net admin role with just this help desk shit and a CCNA? or will i NEED to get something like VCP or MCSA first?

If I were starting out right now, id start a consulting company specialising in oracle->postgresql migrations, and purchase a bunch of adwords around "fuck larry ellison", "fuck oracle" etc

If you use college as a way to get internships and make connections then a degree is worth it

>all these degrees
Almost everyone on my help desk has a bachelors of some sort, the only other person with no degree has an A+. I had experience. Theres only a handful of people in all the other teams that bothered with degrees, and obviously all the managers have degrees. All I see is people with bachelors and tens of thousands in debt working the same shitty low paying help desk jobs, and all these swarthy big dick people with certs doing all the actual work and getting paid the actual money. Everyone I know says degrees are a waste of time and you're better off with certs, even people with masters degrees have said the same.

So whats the meme here?

Those junior * admin roles have pretty much been destroyed by MSPs. CCNA is great but you might want something more specific to the technology of production networks you can support. Set up labs hosted on vmware, use GNS3 to power the network, set up active directory domains. There's free versions of everything you need online to become competent in a lot of this stuff. Write up documentation to describe the labs you've set up and what they can do, that documentation can be linked in your cover letter. You'll have something more impressive than most applicants can muster.

Won't GNS3 require that I have an IOS image? Isn't that shit expensive?

RHCE AND RHCA

It's not hard to get your hands on the images, I doubt it's very legal but it's not difficult.

>AWS
Literally every indian in fucking india has an AWS cert. They don't mean shit to me.

>They don't mean shit to me.
are you hiring?

Not aspies that you find on Sup Forums

Wait, diplomas have no value in your country? Here a degree is obligatory to find a job, because a degree is a proof that you worked hard, passed your test, did internship... Some school even include certs in the diplomas. But certs alone have no value here.
Why would a brand certification have a value in a company that don't use that brand?

Here a diploma says "I can do something for 4 years" and also says "I have a general knowledge of IT", but from what I have seen and experience it goes like this

Connections > Experience > Certifications > Degree > Nothing

Additionally, most companies tend to use vendor specific material. Cisco is wildly popular so its good to have that vendor cert, but the cert doesn't just mean "I can do cisco", it means you understand networking at an intermediate to architectural level, the same works with Microsoft certs.

If you need a job and like "networking" get CCNA, takes like 2months of study tops if you do it daily and study through your labs.
If you have no prior certs this will be a big boost to your career , [from what i heard] people are able to work in entry/system engineer positions with CCNA and NP (which are really easy to get).
Im getting my CCNA next month and its really straight forward and only taking so long since im doing it through UNI where they "cover it"

the pro certs are good and generally out of reach for most pajeets

>and obviously all the managers have degrees
that's the "any degree" part of it
having a degree in absolutely anything makes you look more able to be trained
