Greetings All,
I have few questions. Please share your experiences.
* Is it mandatory for a job seeker to be proficient or aware from both
flavors "Debian and Redhat" (apt-get and yum) or one flavor is sufficient
to land up a job?
I can't speak from market or hiring perspective but as a system
administrator myself, I find it handy that I have worked with various
types of Linux distributions.
But, what's more important is you understand what's going on under the
hood. In the end these all run Linux kernel with GNU userland
utilities and many more applications, as per your needs.
* If one is sufficient then which one gets the preference (debian or
Redhat)?
I believe a lot more companies would be using Redhat due to commercial
support from the vendor and popularity of it's certification. But, I
don't have any concrete data to support it. I have worked at places
where I have used both on the server end.
* Does any linux certification play an important role in your job hunting
journey?
* If any candidate doesn't have any certification but (s)he is good in *nix
and its concepts (good means "almost" familiar with *nix internals) then
what are the chances?
I don't have any certification or formal qualification but that hasn't
stopped me from getting any of the jobs or projects. YMMV.
