| Are my certs worthless? I have my A+, Server+ and Security+, and I'll be taking my Network+ in a few days. Are these worth anything at all? I've unfortuanately paid a ton of money to go to a tech school that prepares people for these exams. They claim to have job placement but I have no faith in that.
What kind of jobs can I realistically expect to get with these certs? | |

| sorry, have no interest in stocks. | |

| Having no interest in stocks is one thing, (probably not a bad thing either  ) not knowing the symbols of the major IT companies could be detrimental one day. Microsoft is known as MSFT in India also.
Here are a few that I see in trade print even when they are not talking about stock price. Admittedly they don't all make sense and some have different titles on different exchanges. Generally the first IPO initials are used when there are multiple listings or issues. It is just more slang to learn like SCSI = scuzzy
csco = cisco
ibm = ibm
dell = dell
aapl = apple
uis = unisys
hpq = hewlett packard
txn = Texas Instruments
amd = amd
intc = intel
mu = micron
goog = google
yhoo = yahoo
jnp = juniper networks
wdc = western digital
stx = seagate
mxo = maxtor
novl = novell
nvda = nvidia
atyt = ati technologies
sunw = sun micro | |

| Hey guys!
You all are going out of the track. Say these cert are not worthless any more. If you are on the job, then these certs will get you on the most upper hand.
So, don't get feel deadly in this world and lets things go as it is. |
