Cheapened Overrated IT Certifications

Posted: Wednesday, 18 August 2004 (00:28)

Nothing irks me more than interviewing a pimply faced sysadmin wannabe who proclaims to have been "conferred the title of MCSE and MCDBA" (by monkey boy Ballmer, no less) but know absolutely nothing when asked what Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, IIS, routing, subnets, etc. etc. is all about conceptually, let alone practically. If I ever come across another of those paper MCSE interviewees, you can be sure that I'm gonna proclaim myself as "The best MCSE, CISSP and some say CCNA! So don't play-play!" when in actuality I only hold SRP, SPM and a D class driver's license.
