Where to start?

Hello everyone,
I am just curious as to where I should start with VMware, are these good certifications to hold? what kind of jobs can i get after taking the entry-level exams?
i don't really have that much experience with VMware only using the workstation client for home use.
Currently I am working on a help desk, have been for a bout 2 years now, My main goal is to work on servers
thank you.

As for jobs, being proficient with vSphere is ussually one requirement of many for sysadmin jobs. If your wanting to work solely with VMware you going to want to shoot for the VCAP level exams and be able to demonstrate with work experience that you are comfortable and confident with performing those advanced tasks. I dont think there is any getting around not having experience with this technology so if your company is using it, see if you can get involved somehow.
The VCA cert should get you familiar with the products. The VCP, I believe, is the entry level cert here and it is farely difficult. Having the VCP with no work experience will prob not get you job but will really help your resume if your shooting for sysadmin position.
Im still deciding what cert i want to tackle next just trying to get a good understanding of what should be the best to get first ..
thank you
