I have decided to pursue some form of certification in order to increase the number of pages on my resume. My background -- about 6 years of Systems Administration, including some security administration on Linux, MS, and Sun platforms. There are too many certification programs availiable, and I was wondering which ones do you recommend and which ones have real market value? (would you hire a person with such a certification?). I am adverse to MS cerifications (no offence meant to anyone) as i consider them a waste of time and money, but if thats what sells, please tell me. So far I never had a problem finding employment w/o any certification, but it looks like more and more job postings require certification (and not so much experience).
