Actually most recently an employer and yes if I had to choose between a certified candidate and one that wasn't I would definitely go with a certified candidate. Some of our clients prefer developers that are certified and it adds value to any firm to say projects are developed by certified professionals. There are ad's on seek that list certification as a desirable or even an essential requirement for CF developers.
