Some people are like “Salesforce certs don’t matter experience does”
1 week later “I would like to welcome our new technical architect John to the team he has 37 certs and 1 year as a Jr Admin”

I saw a person, actually multiple with the LI tagline “12 certs in 98 days”. My guy/gal, that’s not a flex. That either tells me you used dumps at worst, or at best you knew *just* enough to pass the test but have no real applicable knowledge on any of it.

How do these people make it tho? I struggle at times and have 10 years as an admin

I don’t know I know when I worked at Salesforce we were required to do like 60 hours of training on RBDMS concepts.
I’ve literally never found anything really that difficult in salesforce since. 🤷‍♂️
I am also really good at google. I’ve also had a stable of developers my entire career… so that helps. Though flow helps

Just got hired as a senior tech arch. 7 years experience, no certifications. Lmao

If you like doing certifications, keep doing it; if you don’t, don’t do it. It is just like some people like to drink coffee; yet others enjoy tea. Why compare and bash others?

If you have the experience and want to pick up a few certificates, why not. I also use certification exam as a way to structure my learning, especially in the fields I think I should know more; yet real project opportunities haven’t presented themselves. I set a goal for myself: one cert per month until I leave the firm. Firm pays for it; win win, why not.
