To Linux admins: What certifications/degrees do you guys have?
To Linux admins: What certifications/degrees do you guys have?
I'm trying to decide whether it would be worth spending an additional 2 years upgrading my associates to a bachelor's in CS or not.
I don't see much of a demand for the RHCSA in my area (Toronto, Canada) but I see that basically every job posting has a degree requirement.
I'd be 25 by the time I finish school with the degree but I honestly just want to start applying for jobs I don't want to waste time.
I have the A+, CCNA and LFCS. I get my associates next week.
I'm aware that I'll probably get a bunch of responses of people saying "I don't have a degree or certifications!" but I'm genuinely confused as to how you're in IT without either of those things unless you knew someone or got in very early so some elaboration would be nice.

I got dropped out from university. I got a Microsoft Azure Fundamental cert since then, now I'm a mixed Windows/Linux sysadmin at an SMB. YMMV, I'm in Europe btw.
What's the pay like for system admins in Europe on an average? Asking for mid-level (5-7 years of experience)
Depends a bit where you live, but my guess is on average € 45-50k, with whatever local benefits there are. Which translates to between 3 and 4k a month, depending on whether a 14th month is included. But this can be a lot higher or lower depending on the location.
Hmm, not bad. I care more about WLB than money so this is fine.
