Should this newbie IT pro go for Cisco or Microsoft certifications?

Hi everyone,

I am Linda Leung and I write Network World's IT Careers and Training Newsletter and occasionally I get e-mails from readers with all sorts of career-related questions. While I love hearing from readers, I find that I am unable to provide adequate answers to many of the questions because I am a journalist, not an IT recruiter, trainer or employer. Which is why I'm calling for your help. As I receive questions from readers I am going to open out the questions to you - the seasoned IT pro - to help answer. Please use this platform as a resource and please help each other out. This should become a pretty vibrant community for IT pros looking to advance their careers.
