I don't know what employers are generally looking for in the way of 
certification, but for me there are really only two that are meaningful, 
LPI and RedHat.

One thing to remember is that a certification can possibly get you an 
interview or actually in the door, but what you really know makes the 
difference between keeping a Linux job or not.
