  • Hi,

    It depends on employers but it could help secure your first job.

    You have trained in asp.net so you could look at 70-515 exam.

    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/exam.aspx?ID=70-515&locale=en-us

    There is a trainig guide available from http://www.oreilly.com fot 70-515 which includes practice questions.

    Sometimes they have 50% off the ebook as the deal of the day.

    I would study this guide and the MSDN or consider a boot camp if funds allow.

    Even if you end up not taking the certificate you will still be better prepared for an interview.

    Asak further questions if you would like more detail.

    Kind Regards,

    Ozzy Geoff

  • Hi,

    Could you provide more info.

    Do you have an IT experience or have you done any IT Courses/Study?

    Getting a certificate will show that you are keen, however most of these certificates are designed to go with experience and may not be the best route to get employed.

    Kind Regards,

  • hi,

       I had done training in asp.net, vb, c# & html but don't have certification. As when i apply to a company they ask me about the certification. So i wanted to know is that necessary to take the certification.

    I had completed me degree of BE in Information Technology as my stream in the year 2009.
