Hi All,

I currently do a little bit of everything at my job. I'd like to get some opinions on what cert should I focus on. It's hard for me to pick because I'm just all over. I'm hoping someone with a good amount of experience can take a peek at my job duties and let me know what seems best.

    What area of work do you enjoy the most, what do you see yourself doing in your next job? Are you trying to advance further where you are, or will you be switching companies?

    Sounds kind of like my last job... I would say a MSCA, either in Office 365 or Server2012. And learn Powershell as best as you can. Those should help you make sure your getting the most out of your environment and it is setup as best as possible.

    My main project as of now is becoming the AirWatch SME if that helps... so maybe a cert in security and compliance? That's not the only thing I'll be doing, but it's one of my main projects.
