80% of employers perform a resume search "before" posting a network job opening online. Of those resumes searched, resumes that have Cisco Certification are more likely to receive further employer consideration.

In the 2006 Robert Half Technology Salary Guide:

43% of Chief Information Officers stated Cisco Network Administration as the most in demand technical skill set:

Please keep in mind, that the 2006 Salary Guide states Cisco Certification is of greatest value when it is accompanied by practical experience.

Currently, BradReese.Com has an employer seeking to hire Cisco CCIE Voice Certificate Holders at a starting annual salary of $160,000 and depending on experience will pay up to $200,000 in annual salary, these CCIE Voice jobs are based in Austin, Texas USA.

Hi,

Just search the job boards for Cisco certifications (CCNA, CCNP, and CCIE). In particular look for what the going rate is for people with the CCIE certification from Cisco :eek:
