My questions are:
1) Is anyone (besides me) really annoyed by Microsoft's decision to keep changing the names of these certifications. Wasn't it MCDBA not too long ago? And changed to MCTS and MCITP; and now MCSA and whatever.
+1 I am equally annoyed. 😉 But it's Microsoft's product & they can name it whatever they like. We have no say. I believe the introduction of MCTS & MCITP was to generalize the certification with other MS certificates but MCSD and MCSE were most popular and that’s what driving them to go back to old certification names.
2) With the change coming, is still worth for me to take the 70-432 exam? I mean, before too long, no one will remember what's MCTS? Just wondering what'll the job marketability be like in your opinion? Will it all about MCSA now or will most companies still look for MCTS 70-432?
I don’t consider it a problem at all. Recruiters (agencies & corporates) are aware of these changes. If they are not, you wouldn’t like to see those. Certification helps in job hunt but it’s not the only criteria of selection. A good interviewer will not compromise with certificates in place of hands-on-experience. Thus you be sure that any certificate that you earn or planning to earn will have great value. As a general practice, the latest is always better.
