I get an insane amount of people pinging me on linked in to get PMP and agile certifications. I've been on the fence about getting one, they are expensive and time consuming--expire so you have to pay for them again, and they aren't industry specific. I know alot of PMs now just through agency turnover at current and previous job, none had PMP and one had Agile/scrum certification. Not a necessity.
