Jeongwoo,
I suspect CCNP is not widely recognized by employers (yet), with the
possible exception of the Washington DC area. A year ago, everyone here was
looking for CCNAs but now CCNP seems to be the cert. du jour, judging by the
job ads in the Washington Post. CCNA, like MCSE, is nothing special anymore
in these parts. Short of suggesting that you move here, take a look at the
basics that you might easily change--for instance, do you have a strong,
well-presented resume? Consider having a professional look at your resume
for things like language quality, impact, succinctness. Also, ask yourself
hard questions about the impression you make at job interviews. Are you
imparting to the employer how you will devote your skills to solving his
problems, or are you leaving the impression that what you're looking for is
someone to support your CCIE?

Subject: Disappointed with ccnp!!
Hi group members.
I need your help.
I am having a hard time on finding a job.
I recently got ccnp certification and looking for the
entry level of job for network engineer.
I am living in San Francisco, and graduated from
college less than a year ago.
I have less than a year of network experience that I
got from school computer lab.
I had a harder time finding a job before I became
ccnp. So I studied hard believing that ccnp would get
me somewhere at least as a entry level network
engineer. Now I am kind of confused and disappointed
with the fact that I am still having a hard time
finding a job even with ccnp certification.
I feel like I need more cisco certifications such as
ccda, ccdp.
Would these certification ever help me find job?
It is really discouraging that cisco certification
doesn’t help me much find a job at this point, because
I am also pursuing ccie too. I have to ask myself what
is the point of getting cisco certification.
Lots of CCNAs are having a job. Why not ccnp?
Could somebody tell me why it goes like this, and what
I should do?
Am I looking for wrong job?
I will appreiciate your input.
