Taking Java certification, or not?

Wednesday, August 19. 2009

Everyone knows that certification on resume is nothing. But funny enough there are still employers care about that, and even funnier that there are still exam takers. Read this interview.

Don't get fooled into thinking that taking the Java certification exam will make you a better developer. Instead, take that time and join an open-source project and look at how others develop code, and learn from their choices.

Wow.. Long time no visit your blog.

Agree with you... Certification is to certify your skills... Anyway, my product certifications have lapsed... So, I have to start the process all over again.

Am contemplating taking the Java certs. Malu-lah, so many years coding in Java but nothing to "certify" my skills. LOL!
