From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Like some other replies said, it probably won't get you a job by itself. But it may get you the interview if it's the distinguishing factor between you and an equivalent candidate.
I got RHCSA (and later RHCE), and I think they were worthwhile. On cost, I would not go out of pocket for the Red Hat training if that's the bundle you're referring to. That stuff is priced for people that are being funded by their companies. Personally, I did self-study using Sander van Vugt's materials. He has both books and videos for RHCSA, depending on your learning style. I found them to be excellent preparation for the exam.
