I’ll say it: certs are overrated resume candy. I’ve seen too many ‘certified’ architects who can’t troubleshoot a DNS timeout but can recite exam dumps perfectly. Meanwhile, my best ops engineer has zero certs just raw curiosity, Linux fu, and the ability to stay calm during a P1 outage.
I’ll take real world experience over certs any day!!!
Am I wrong? I’ve watched cert-chasers leave 6 months after getting paper and the steady, uncertified ones stay and grow.
Change my mind…

You’re right, however, candidates have to do all they can to stand out in this job market. We no longer live in a world where humans are evaluating our experience. We have to have keywords and certifications in order to get through the ATS tracking system. So I can’t blame candidates for doing all they can to get employed.

True and nowadays the system is structured for the certifications. I know I’m the exception not the norm

Problem is that HR's neverending meddling forces people to chase certs that may/may not even be needed. Some cases well exceed the scope of the position. Seen plenty require a CCNA/CCNP, MCSA/MCSE, and/or CISSP... For a level 1 script reading help desk.

What will you do if you dating someone that has over $750,000 student loan debt? She’s a dentist about to graduate. I listened to this and I was like… this is ridiculous.

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.
