One other thing - I dunno where the $600 or $800 figure came from, but most certs I've seen the price on - Oracle, security (from SANS), etc, all run, including the training, somewhere in the neighborhood of $3000.
And I've *never* had an employer that was willing to pay for training, certainly not for that kind of money.
Here you have a very good point. Getting these certifications is very
expensive and you can't overlook someone that doesn't have a cert just
because he doesn't. There are people who simply can't afford it. For the
hiring i'll always go for the hands on test. If I find two that are both
very good well then I'll take in account the certification.
