Hands down the best examination format I have ever taken. I have a few certs in this area but the RHCE is an excellent model of how to examine someone's skillset.
I wish more, maybe even most, technical certifications followed this model.
The one down side was the fact they weren't willing to give performance feedback. I got 96.4% overall and was absolutely gutted I couldn't find out the reason I missed (still a respectable score - I believe the average score is a fail).
There was a section at the end with 3 different tasks and you should choose 2. I finished pretty early so I decided to do the 3rd, i reviewed and reviewed my work before I left that workstation, I can't see what else I did wrong. Would love to know.
- mrbill 8y agoI got mine back in the RHEL4 days, got a 97%, and yeah its bugged me for years as I want to know what I got wrong. Probably the "hardest", most involved, "gotta know your shit" certification I've ever done. I definitely felt like I'd earned it.
- flukus 8y agoCould an employer reliable use this as an indication that an employee is at least competent? If so I'd love a programming equivalent and be able to avoid FizzBuzz like tests.
