But you are certified and therefore on a short list of candidates as soon as you apply for a job. I have encountered quite a few of these people in my career. A good interviewer should weed these candidates out but that does not happen most of the time. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I've already seen plenty with a computer knowledge certificate that do not know how to insert de cdrom in the drive! Or connect a utp cat5 cable! In the western world one can call the training companies to ask if you did pas for the exam you hold and show. I wonder if MUK or the others hold up to that here.
