My thoughts: E-mail Signatures:
I do not personally put anything on that I am not certified in. For example: CCIE Written, BCRAN, CIT, etc. But I can understand why others do. They are either proud of the fact that they have passed the CCIE written, and/or want to give other people a signal where they are knowledge/cert. wise. Resume's: I am currently pursuing CSS1, but I do not put that under my certifications. However, I put under what education I have and the exams I have passed, and also what certifications I am currently pursuing, and what exam I am currently working on. For example: Certs: MCP, MCSE, MCP+I, CCNA, CCNP Exams: Windows NT 4.0 Server Windows NT 4.0 Server Enterprise Windows NT 4.0 Workstation Networking Essentials TCP/IP IIS 4.0 FrontPage 98 CCNA BCRAN BCMSN BSCN CIT Certs Currently Pursuing: CSS1 Exams Currently Preparing for: MCNS I know of some people who like to put "CCIE - in progress" under certs, after they have opened the first page in the CCNA study guide - that's just too far out if you ask me.

I would like to know why? I personally don't believe that the written exam is a certification but more of a preliminary. What is the purpose of putting CCIE written after your signature? Hiring managers: What are your thoughts when you see a resume with CCIE written on there? Is that misleading? I am asking this out of curiosity. I do not know if this is a normal practice or not. I would like see people's thoughts on this. -junovtv Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=31204&t=31196 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
