Resume padding; certifications are cash cows for folks who want to continue to perpetuate the idea that “data maturity” comes down to “tools” and “platform””.

I appreciate you sharing that context; it makes a lot more sense now. Healthcare is definitely one of those domains where industry-specific knowledge and regulatory experience would outweigh general tool certifications. That's actually an invaluable perspective.
I think my hesitation comes from being earlier in my career and wondering if these certifications open doors before someone gets a chance to see what else you bring to the table. But your point about substance over credentials resonates, especially in specialized fields.
Thank you for the honest feedback, and I apologize that the interview process has been frustrating. Finding that balance between technical skills and domain expertise can be challenging from the hiring side as well.
