That is so not fair. I doubt that my three favorite movies would endear me to a group of men, who tend to be a bit more, shall we say, neandrathal, in their choices.

If the person likes similar movies as the general team and sounds smart, than he/she is a good buy.

I wouldn't let them within 20 feet of any Exchange server that I worked on but they are the hired "Exchange expert" for their company. The fact is that people are people, and certified people are not inherently better than experienced people or vice versa. I think that the best bet is the person who realizes that, regardless of how much he knows, he does not know everything and is always willing and wanting to learn more than he currently knows. -----Original Message----- From: Ray Zorz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 4:43 PM Posted To: Exchange Discussion List Conversation: Cerification question Subject: RE: Cerification question Very good points. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Tim Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 2:22 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Cerification question You people talk like you can't have both. Sure there are some paper MCSEs out there but there are also many MCSEs that have mucho experience. Most hiring managers, all things being equal will look at experience first but... then certs. Additionally while experience is the best there are people that have worked in one environment for so long that they know NOTHING about any other capabilities of the hardware/software. They are nearly as bad as the paper MSCE because the scope of their knowledge is so very limited and because of their experience think the only way to run a network is the way they did it at their last job. At least the Paper boyz know they are limited, are willing to learn, cost half as much and don't cause half the drama the "experience" guy does. They piss me off so much more, that and they usually have no idea as to WHY their last network was set up that way but that it is just the best way. Experience is NOT always the best qualifier either _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
