Hi Dotan,
I hire Linux sys-admin's, Linux kernel hacks and Linux developers.
The first thing that I look for in a prospective employee is a hobbyist
interest in Linux. If a guy shows up in my office with an RFID chipped
white rat in his pocket that he keeps track of using a Linux app that he
wrote and loaded onto his notebook computer, then he gets a job offer. An
RHCE certification doesn't match that.
Another dead giveaway is a prospective engineer who shows up with a
laptop that runs his own distribution of Linux because he knows all of the
standard distros and is not happy with any of them and tells me what is
wrong with each of them until I finally have to tell him to shut up.
Even a guy who just shows up with a Dvorak keyboard, no mouse and does
everything inside of EMACS gets an offer.
Good luck,
- yba

Subject: Where to learn Linux?
I have been using Linux as an end user for several years, but now I
think that I might like to make a career out of *nix administration.
Where are some good places to get a certificate from? Is an online
certificate as good as an offline course? What online certificates are
honourable? What real-world courses in Israel are recommended?
Thanks!
