Re: Is it worth getting Solidworks Certifications?
That might be true for your preferences, or a smaller shop, or a shop where the people who hire don't have to answer to bean counters and have a lot of flexibility, but for the majority of companies the certifications are the per-requisites for your resume to make it from the "applied" pile to the "follow-up" pile.
Increasingly over the years the people hiring have decreasing skills in the area they are responsible for hiring people in, and are dictated to by HR and personnel management as to what the criteria are, so the easy option is to demand industry standard certs, so the blowback doesn't hit them if the hiree doesn't work out.
It's like the old adage in IT, "No-one ever got fired for buying Microsoft or Cisco!".
