So it sounds kinda like my CDL license, I have it, gets me to the interview, but without experience no chance in getting hired. Which brings me to a second question, how do you obtain credible experience?

Essentials of System Administration (LFS201)

Outline of the course is:

It is fairly cheap, has a lot of things I would like to learn anyway, but as far as getting my foot in the door at a job not sure if it is worth it.

Anyone with experience with it or viewpoints from a employer would be much appreciated.
