I've been in the computer industry for nearly 12 years.
To tell you to get a certification would be doing you a disservice
because you still wouldn't get a job and you'd have a useless
certificate to show for it.
What you need is to learn how to identify your strengths and
map them onto a career. Once you do that, the certifications
you need, if any, will become obvious and you won't need to ask
anyone.
That's why I suggested the career management classes. Yes, the
classes themselves might not be computer-related, but you're
so thick you couldn't even think it through -- where's your
problem solving skills?
Hint: HR droids are essentially the product of the Career
Management process. It's pretty much what they know and
what they're supposed to be domain experts in. Learn their
game and beat it, or don't. I don't care.
