don’t forget bryant and stratton…

no one that expects the person to know anything will hire someone with those certs, or any degree really without work experience.

MCSE is ok - it teaches you plenty of shit that you actually need to know to run windows servers, which is valuable. I still would hire someone with a year of proven experience over any cert though.

those are just big corps looking to give a reason to weed people out, that is lazy recruitment, and will result likely in crappy employees 😛
