This is not required for careers with less responsibility (and less salary).

There are so many graduates out there who don't know much. Then there are some hobby programmers who know much more and can do much more than those who hold a diploma in IT.

You are only focusing on "programming." However, all the rest of your articles appear to be on the "tech" side. Certifications are always important in getting the job.

You never interview with 1 person for a high level job. For example, in my position, I interviewed with 4 people over the course of three weeks. Two people believed that the certifications were important. One because he believed that someone who took time to achieve certian certifications on their own showed a more "get up and go" attitude. The one other believed that it showed a higher quality of base of knowledge.

So when it came to hiring me or the other guy, I was chosen becuase of my skills *AND* because of my certifications.
