What's the most respectable Linux System Administration Certification?

Q. Hi,
Planning to get a Linux certification as a System Administrator, but unsure which one is preferred and most useful to employers....any idea?

A. Hi

LPIC is not that much respected certification.

If you want to be a System Administrator, start with RHCSA , RHCE as those are respectable.

If you manage to complete it, than you can opt for RHCSS or further certification, but for those RHCE is the must.

what are my chances to become a Linux System Administrator at 48?
Q. I am trying to change career(unemployed) and I am a newbie in technology except that I did some html & CSS. I wonder if I study Linux for a year & maybe pass a linux+ certification I will be able to get an entry level position? Is it too old at 48 to try? Or maybe should I focus on something like PHP/Mysql? I am trying to decide what would be the easy road and the rewarding one as well. Thanks.

A. With RHCE, you are never too old.

what kind of hourly wage could i expect with a A+ certification?
Q. I plan on taking it this summer and was wondering where could i work and what kind of pay i would receive. I plan on taking my linux certification this winter any idea what that pays?

A. Really dont expect much. A+ is the basics of basics. Depending on your area and where you apply, you will probably start a few dollars ($2-4) over minimum wage, if you have no job experience. Linux certifications are only meaningful if the place you are apply has any Linux machines in the first place. Most of the business world runs Windows, and then if at all, they run Linux for task specific jobs, which are basically set and forget.
