Hello colin

There a thead on this question have a look at search.
The main out come was no you should look at A+ or other

most employers are asking for experience and one or more MCP I have found.

 

Your fears are well-founded. The MCSE is indeed beyond your experience level, and can actually hurt your chances of getting a job, not help them. Employers won't hire you for advanced jobs due to your lack of experience, and they might not hire you for entry-level jobs because they don't need someone with a certification as advanced as the MCSE - they just need an entry-level tech, preferably with entry-level (not advanced) certifications.

I would recommend that you pursue the A+, Network+, and MCDST. Any of these would look great on a CV or resume for someone wanting to break into IT.

 

What he said ^

No one will let a guy with an MCSE and no experience loose on their servers unless they are mad. High level certs like the MCSE are not supposed to show you can answer some questions they are supposed to show that you can do the job with very little or no training.

 

Hi. Can't add anything to the above except
