On a job application site for my local government it reveals if a specific social security has been used or not on that site. The site is very outdated.

Alternatively get CCNA if you want to be certified for something useful.

I have the A+ and am already scheduled for the Network+ test. I still consider myself quite the noob, but am learning a lot. I will look into the CCNA, as you're not the first to mention it to me. Next on my list was Security+, however. At this point, I just want any entry-level job in IT. Or fuck... almost any job at all. Going on 6 months of unemployment here.
