new company look it based on % of increase, wont give > 50%

I'm quite boring and tired of playing pc games for the past two weeks ... time to take another certifications while looking for a job. My preferred examination:

1) ITIL Foundation v2011
2) CWNA (Certified Wireless Network Associate)

I choose ITIL and CWNA as the book plus the exam only will cost me below RM 1000. The books are also currently available in the local bookstores so no headache to find the resources and doesn't need to order from overseas.

I believed I could take it within 1 month of full time self study before I proceed to take my master which will cost me my weekend social life.

Previously I've aimed to take the CCNA but have to stop midway. The reason I've to dumped CCNA exam even after studying for 2 months is because after doing some calculations, there's another certifications that I need to retake in the future that would cost me a total 4-5 digits      . Second reason is I try to avoid product based certifications as I prefer to gain general knowledge that I can use for my future PhD and IT jobs. For security certifications, once I enroll in my master courses, I'll have an opportunities to take a lot of certifications with a great discounts    ... so, should not be a problem. Which one would you value more between those two certifications? 

Thank you for your feedback
