Food for thought - what if there was a recruiter with a CCIE ? or a CCNP ?

Ans: Many would be jobless,homeless 

It is a question of oppurtunity and little direction.

May everyone get a fair chance to play and win !!!!

Yes, but what you fail to realize is that Recruiters
do not care about you nor do they even read your
resume most times.  All they care about is stuffing
you into a job they think you are "Perfect" for simply
based on the fact that one word of your resume matches
whats on their client request.

Most recruiters have no experience in the field they
recruit for, and do not know how to sell you to an HR
department because they do not understand what
CCNP/CCIE mean.

Believe me, in IT, what HR thinks about a resume or a
qualified canidata dosent mean squat !!!   WHen it
gets into the hands of the IT Manager, he/she will
know who you are !!!!
