Re: certifications

Don't be blinded by certificates and qualifications, there are many
good hackers and security all-rounders that neither have degrees in CS
nor any form of certification.

It is an illusion that you need to have these to fulfil your desire to
have a security based job. Sure they may help get you in the door of
some place or other, but if you can't get in the door without having a
cert though you specify all your relevant skills / projects on your
CV, then that is probably not a place you want to work at anyway.
*boring, with numerous spare rolls of red tape*

Pitch yourslef, sell your talent right, detail your skill sets and how
they match what the company need and you should have no trouble
getting an interview.
