I am studying to take the SCJP exam and I wondering if employers even care if you have would my time be better spent doing other things to make myself more marketable? I like java and I know it pretty well and I would like to get the cert except being unemployed money and time need to go where they are best spent.
I would say that it all depends. In my opinion, the SCJP is not really a tool for getting you a job. An IT degree will take you much farther than a certification. Then again the point of certifications it to add them to your resume. The best combination would be an IT degree, some experience, and certification. But then again, a certification is better than no certification. |

Yep, along with an advertisement, if I remember correctly... or perhaps that was a different forum - I can never keep the offenders sorted out.
