Sometimes you can't research if you are going through a recruiter.

Before than I say anything, first I wanna say thank you and I highly appreciate your information and advice. Here is my question. Im 38 years old man who recently completed Microsoft Associate Technician MTA 98-366 Networking and MTA 98-367 Security Certifications, with CompTia Security+ in progress. In April and May this year I applied to 70 jobs, nobody responded positively nor called me for interview, not even for phone interview. I got very discouraged. I live in Phoenix Arizona btw. Am I being discarded because of pandemic situation or they simply don't value MTA certs?

Did you post your resume on Ziprecruiter and Indeed? Is your resume 2 pages without typos and written for the jobs you are applying, demonstrating value to your potential employers?

[@aleksandarrikic9208]

@@cisoglobalinc Yes, posted two pages resume just on indeed though no typos. Even though I have 20 years of working history I cut off all the jobs on resume that I had who were not related to IT field. Posted just customer service jobs and tech sales in retail. At this point I'm not sure if they don't value MTA certs or they're not hiring because of chaos with pandemic.
