With everyone searching jobs right now, people just need to find ways to make themselves more marketable.
If you're talking CCNA for a cisco cert - good luck. They mean as much as McDonald's napkins. High schools offer Cisco Academy now as a course - ending in either a CCNA or CCNP.
Take a look into things like SANS GIAC or the SSCP / CISSP for certifications that matter. If you're a router / switch monkey and out of work - well, get back into either system administration, programing, or database work.
If you know anything about SAP, PeopleSoft, or ERD in general - there are quite a few jobs still hiring.
