@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I feel that on so many levels, and I appreciate the honesty. I feel as though the level of which the diploma taught me things - I already had most of it by being proactive and learning in my personal time.
The only reason I finished it was to a lleast have one piece of paper saying that I’m semi capable in tech, lol. Because it’s a bit rough trying to break into the industry when I just have medical/nursing degrees and certificates.
I do understand that having a collection of certificates can look bag, as it makes you look like more of an achievement hunter than anything.
I do have a question for both you and more so @prologic@twtxt.net, when looking at candidates - if you’re not looking at certificates per say. Are you more so looking how the person represents themselves before moving on to a technical/role specific interview?
But thanks to you both for your replies, it helps a lot! :)
