Are certs important with 10+ years experience and college degrees?
I am struggling to get any interviews after 3-4 months of applying for remote IT support jobs, despite having over 10 years of experience and 2 relevant bachelor's degrees. The only thing it feels like I am missing is certifications, but my understanding is that real experience is more valued. I'd like to not waste my time (and money) on these cert exams if they won't even matter compared to my experience. Is this just the overcompetitive market, or do resumes with no certs just get auto-trashed?
