Dear All,
Few weeks back, your valuable comments helped us come out with an
interesting article on rooting one's Android device. We are back with a
story idea and would really appreciate if you chip in and share your
views on this. 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.
Looking forward to see some great takes...
Thanks and Regards,
Priyanka

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.

One of the problems with company specific certifications is that you are
going to get in companyisms.
The NRCFOSS certification was supposed to address this issue by being
company neutral. This provides a nice generic skill set that can be easily
tailored by a little extra self study to master a company specific corner
case.
