None. People usually get certified once they have a job and have an idea of which direction their career is heading towards. Getting a certificate without any experience, still means that you have no experience, and is therefore likely to make little difference towards landing a job...

You'll need to have a long, hard soul searching session about exactly what direction in IT you would to proceed in.
I got my first job at an ISP, and therefore decided to pursue a career in networks.

I then got a CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Engineer), and grew from there.

It's completely up to you though, find out where your passion lies.

I agree with the other people that answered here. You can't really expect help with that one liner. Give much more detail as to what you see yourself doing, or what is the route you want to go.

The way you put it is almost as if Ag I have to do it, I don't really want to, lets hear what other people say.

From you posting, we can see your heart is not in this, and if it is not, employers will see it to. If I am wrong, sorry, but if you ask a half hearted question like that, don't expect hellp.

It depends on what you want to specialize in really. If it's networking then follow shreez's advice. Get a CCNA and take it from there. if it's developing then maybe focus on maybe Python. I'm no developer though. maybe one can chip in here.
