Hi,
At the moment I hold the role of a system admin. Although due to staff leaving and not being replaced I seem to be spending half my lfe doing a helpdesk role.
Now I just completed sec+ and hold a few other Citrix CCA's, MCP, ITIL etc. ( bit of a jack of all trades I suppose ) but I am thinking of adding the 70-682 ( upgrade your XP MCDST to win7 MCITP ) or just do the 70-680 ( straight win7 MCTS ).
My question I suppose is, would employers see this as a worthwhile addition? I can do the majority of the server bits eg exchange admin tasks, GPO changes, AD users, DHCP work etc but that all remains fairly static so I dont tend to do to much day-to-day work with it.
So do you think its worthwhile? I might do a server or exchange exam later but dont have the funds or kit readily available.
AAA

Certs never hurt. Depends on what path you want to pursue. Nothing wrong with increasing your marketability!
