Do they ask for you to provide proof of the certifications you claim to have acquired?

Depends on the company. MSP's will certainly ask for proof. I think they get their status as a 'gold' or 'silver' partner based on the number of certified employees they have.

Depends on the company. Experience is usually accepted anyway if you don't have the certs (I don't do certs... but I have 16yrs experience - when asked I usually say "Obviously I go on courses to keep my knowledge current, but I've been too busy actually working with the technology to take an exam")... just landed myself a new gig with a tier one bank off the experience and they WOULD have checked if I'd said I had any certs apparently, so low-key glad I just kept it honest.

Naa, they use technical interviews to see if u know ya shyt. I got ethered once when I first started :mjcry: Learned a valuable lesson doe.

Know your resume; study what is listed in the job description.

I listed i knew what a hyper-v was on my resume and they called me out so quick since they knew I was just getting into the field:mjcry:

Paid 2 tolls and drove 50min just to get embarrassed :wow:

They ask you questions if it's tech job, they give you quizzes to see how advanced you know how to code or if you are bullshytting.
