Does anybody actually put any stock in the presence or absence of vendor certifications on a resume when judging the capabilities of an engineer? There's no correlation between certification and capability, in my experience. ---------------------------------------------------------------- The issue I've found is many times I am being hired by folks that don't know IP networking very well and don't know any other way to evaluate a person's ability WRT IP networking than requiring certs of one type or another. Or trust the confidence I express when answering the questions they do ask. One day, hopefully, someone will ask me in an interview good technical questions that I can answer in a proper manner and then they'll let me telecommute for most of the year... ;-) scott
