RE: CCIE certification value.

Here we go again...

Hey, Shekhar, when you pass - I'll give two cents what you think of the ccie...

Everyone thinks they are "great without the cert"

If you were really that good you would have passed it already without the studying...

thanks

Hi All,

First of all , before sharing anything , I want to say that I mean no offense to anybody or any certifications.

Just want you people to share your views on CCIE certification value.

I am very upset with my experience with 3 CCIE certified candidates

I was interviewing 3 CCIE candidates for my company requirement, although I am not a CCIE ...am preparing for the LAB,just cleared the written.

Out of three , two guys are CCIE(R&S) Lab certified and one is dual CCIE(R&S + Service Provider).

The first candidate was average on theortical knowledge on various technologies that I didn't expect form a CCIE .But the main part is that he doesn't have any practical knowledge on the actual implementation in real world.

The second candidate was below average on theortical knowledge ,not able to answer even few OSPF questions and forget about the practical part. He too was zero on it.

Now the third candidate who is dual CCIE .He is working in Cisco. I was expecting a lot from him. He was good on the technical knowledge ...not as good as I expected......but again on the implementation part he was zero.

Don't you guys think that Cisco certifications have become a ediucation buisness.I could be wrong in saying that but... i think the trend has changed now ....and everyone is running for just certification not becoming actual IE.

And this is affecting a lot the value of CCIE certification .....

Again I mean no offense to anyone who is preparing for CCIE...I am too preparing for LAB ,,, and some of the assumptions I have made could be wrong.

Regards,
Shekhar
