(...) I have never heard of people getting jobs, getting rejected for jobs, or getting a higher salary based on RH certs. I _have_ heard of people not getting jobs at least partly based on the fact that they were MCSEs. Again, take that as you will. (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

Have any of you looked into certifications in the Linux space? Red Hat appears to have a program(1), but I don't know what else exists and/or how valuable this/these certifications are being viewed "out there". -Steven (2 URLs) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
