So the story idea goes like: How important are FOSS certifications when it comes to the job market? Please let us have your insightful suggestions on the same.
This reminds me of those discussions I had with Kenneth Gonsalves and Dr Srinivasan at NRCFOSS who were planning[1] to bring up a FOSS certification and how we all agreed upon the decreasing "value" for RH certifications because of the rumours/reports saying how it has joined the mainstream list of certifications and there were disrepancies involving the exams .
LPI was something which didnt become mainstream for some reason but its a better exam . There are other certifications but I think its the ability to solve a problem , ability to learn , interest in tweaking are the skills which matter and are valued most.
