The Water Cooler

Director of IT Operations

I’ll say it: certs are overrated resume candy. I’ve seen too many ‘certified’ architects who can’t troubleshoot a DNS timeout but can recite exam dumps perfectly. Meanwhile, my best ops engineer has zero certs just raw curiosity, Linux fu, and the ability to stay calm during a P1 outage. I’ll take real world experience over certs any day!!! Am I wrong? I’ve watched cert-chasers leave 6 months after getting paper and the steady, uncertified ones stay and grow. Change my mind…
