@Subhojit
You just posted my thoughts in my mind.
People without certification always criticize the people with certification(
Do you know why? because they are scared of taking up the exam and Majority
of the people are not certified . Majority won blindly. ).
According to me anyone can configure a squid or apache . do you think the
howto's available in the internet is not enough to configure those servers.
?
The recruiter should understand and look freshers with certification in a
positive way . we are not trying to prove that we are well stuffed than the
realtime experience people. we are trying to show that we have interest in
that field. We are ready to groom ourself in that field. Atleast you people
should respect RHCE . It is a performance based one.
why dont you people give an system to the candidate ask him to configure
some server are what ever tasks. An RHCE student will willingly take up than
people with 1 yr experience . Because those people never configured servers
without documentation . we configured 6 to 7 servers and 13 tasks within 3
and half hours ( without documentation that too under time and money
pressure ).
here is the reply for all the recruiters and interview panel guys
1) Just think what type of question you are asking to the student ? you
people are asking questions what you know. To achieve an task there are 100
of ways and 100 of commands . Stop asking about commands and their flags .
just try to find how much the candidate is interested in this field and how
much he is up to date in the filed. If you really want good student go for
performance based interview. Ask questions concept based like what is NAT?
or how will you implement NAT in linux? Dont expect the exact command with
flags and arguments (It shows stupidity). Because we are not going to
dictate commands and flags to the system.
A request to all the students taking up certification. Go for certification
,surely you will be respected if you are good in your curriculum .Practice
as much as possible. Smart work with Hard work always pays . Always respect
your certification. If you respect your certification automatically you will
start studying more about your certification curriculum . One day you will
achieve :)
If you feel my tone is aggressive sorry for that.

Hi,
my thought about certificate is not like this, its true that many person
who have certificate but doesn't have any knowledge.....Many people who has
written certification exam are force to write because the companies are
asking for that, especially freshers....
even i have seen many people who is experienced but doesn't have that much
knowledge.....freshers are force to write certification exam not by their
will but for getting job.....no body like to spend money for certificate,
but during interview they have to compete the people....
even i m also against these certification, i m also a fresher and have done
RHCE, after completing my certification i didn't find that my knowledge
have
increased in one day, i m studying Linux every day, finding the real time
problems from ILUGC and then trying to implement it and finding the
solution, linux is like that until u will not face problem, u cannot learn
it properly or cannot understand why the problem has occur....
Linux is very vast, a fresher doesn't know from where to start and few
people r there to help them in learning linux, doing free lancing is not
easy for everyone.....My suggestion is that people should have to learn by
their own interest and the companies those who r providing certificate in
linux, should have to provide a good text, which should contain a brief
explanation and shouldn't make the certification as business..
I also request ILUGC to come forward and to talk with universities, college
and also diploma colleges to go with open source.....I also request
knowledgeable person to come to forward to provide at least one day seminar
in diploma and engineering colleges......
The problem is that many colleges doesn't have good staff to guide them, so
many students are loosing their interest and many doesn't know abt open
source...
