Right on tony1athome, you said it... employers certainly will not hire you on because of a certification like the CCNA. You will still have to suffer through a technical interview to PROVE you are worthy of that certification, and didn't achieve it by surfing some braindump sites and then forgot it all. Certifications are great bullets to have on your resume, but be prepared to back them up, and express interest in the prospective employer's plans to develop you further to CCNP for example. Will they pay for your classes? Study guides? Exam fees? Once you are working for them, many companies even offer decent bonus money for achieving some certifications.
To answer your original question, after completing your CCNA your job prospects typically include entry level network administration and support type jobs, including network administrator, network help desk, network command center support, network design assistant, first level network troubleshooter, etc. This cert gets you into "administrator" level job titles, then the CCNP or CCSP for example get you into "engineer" types of job titles.

CCNA < CCNP < CCNE The CCNA is the undemanding get right of entry to point. there is actual a certificates under that yet maximum agencies/jobs look for the CCNA. that's rather only one thing to make your resume look a sprint greater advantageous IMO. while it includes stepping into the IT field & getting a reliable interest not something is greater advantageous than experience. I had a chum who merely have been given employed for an get right of entry to point IT place at a school district & they reported if he have been given his CCNA they had provide him a $a million strengthen. He exchange into employed with no need any IT certificates.

That completely depends on how smart you are. Certifications only say that you passed a test. A smart employer won't assume that you actually learned something. You will be tested by your prospective employer and, if you did not learn, no certification on earth will get you through the door.
Do the certification to prove that you have learned. Don't do it instead of actually learning, because it won't work.

Absolutely zilch, zero, nothing. Best you emigrate and leave a space for someone less interested in prospects, money, fame and contentment.
