IT professionals with certifications on their resume command better jobs, earn higher salaries and have varied job opportunities. Three of the “Top 10 Certifications” that help IT workers get jobs are the CompTIA certifications. CompTIA certification is the best way to demonstrate one’s competency and knowledge and these certifications are vendor neutral – which means that certified professionals can proficiently work with variety of hardware and software found in most organizations.
