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!
certificates mean very little. it is experience that counts. usually,
you need to weasel-out your way into system administration, by starting
from related jobs (e.g. technical support/helpdesk, a technician, a
junior-assistant to the sys admins, etc.).
it's not easy to get a first job, because who in their right mind will
let someone with no experience "shave" on the backs of their poor users?
unlike other jobs - where you can be easily supervised - with system, if
you butched the system - your users will be hurt immediately.
