Hello programmers,
Am a young graduate trying to enter into the labour market, pls what is the hottest programming certification that can help me land a job in lagos, already i have intermediate skills in java and csharp.pls ur replies will be well appreciated.

Fellow programmmers, am still waiting for your replies o.

Sorry just a quick question. Do you need a bloody certification before you work in Nigeria? No offence to the OP, just want to know

@Fayimore
thanks for ur reply, is not as if i cant prove myself when it comes to getting the work done. But, av not really worked in nigeria all i do is side projects for myself and few clients that i have developed websites for. As i have graduated from school, i need to go into serious programming, right now i have not got any certificate that i will use to convince an employer that this is what i do, before presenting my archive of works that i have done.

Programmers am Waiting for ur advices pls

get a SCJP just to round up your Java knowledge and give you some credibility.
a MCPD for C# is not a bad idea too. And please document the side-projects( the ones that can be presented at an interview).

All the best.

Thank u very much for ur reply. av been planing on taking the java exam for a while but a fellow programmer told me that java is fast loosing importance in the nigeria market. Anyway i will take it cos i love java, Java taught me programming

@chimanet,

i am also an intermediate java and c#(desktop and web) programmer too, i love Java cos it taught me programming as well, in addition, I love itsOOP methodology.but av not got many past works, i would want us to run packages and share knowledge, i think its gonna be challenging and interesting and most importantly useful for CV's, 08126884601,
