I don't believe certifications are worthless. The job market is very competitive. You can never have too many credentials on your resume when you're looking for a job.
3 things Seems like a correlation between a salary increase and AWS certification does not necessarily indicate a causation, and can be caused by the confounder of people who try to get certificates are more likely to broker higher salaries. Also seems like Dylan might have derived more professional recognition from having built his restaurant review website than the professional recognition he got from the AWS certificates he got, via the argument that one is much harder to do and more rarely done than the other. I also think learning AWS as you go can work for some people in creating their applications. I've spun up a S3 and CloudFront distribution myself without a certificate, and even made money off said app. Since I did this, I did not incur a loss of time in trying to learn many details of the AWS platform that might not be used by me in building other apps on the AWS platform in the future.
I but the foundational certificate and I have already got a tech interview with Amazon. I am not ready yet but yes I feel like having it on my resume looks really good .
Certifications certainly help compensate for lack of experience... for getting the foot on the door for interviews. They don't guarantee a job, but they do increase the chance of getting resumes past recruiters and HR and into an interview. From there, it's a number game. The greater the chance to get interviews, the greater the chance of presenting your case. And the greater the number of people that interview you, the greater the chance of getting a job. And unlike many certs that are useless, AWS (or Azure) certs do make a difference.
I had knowledge on devops and aws equal to experience Everything I can do using documents and providing zero down time to our application. Now a days I am seeing everyone in software have fake exp to get hike in salaries.

Hi there. I am 35 and new to the field, as I have worked in a completely different one (health care) for the past 12 years. Will an AWS certification (aws cloud practitioner and asap solutions architect certification) assure me a job? I 've just been through a number of job offers, and they all require a degree (bachelor or associate) in a technical field, such as computing, engineeering, besides some years of experience, and more things. Thanks for helping out.
