I guess that was me.... Thanks for your support back then Robin. Yep in my experience employers are increasingly looking for certified developers (at least in Australia anyway). I'd recommend anyone going for certification especially those involved in contract work.

All the Macromedia Certifications are conducted under controlled conditions (no looking up books or websites) at VUE testing centres. I've gone on at length about certification before, just wanted to say to those who haven't sat a Macromedia certification exam that they are not necessarily pushovers, they do test quite a few things you wouldn't pick up from a book, and if I was employing someone myself I'd favour a certified candidate over a non-certified one, all other things being almost equal. I think other employers are interested in certified developers too - earlier this year a certified Flash developer from overseas came to work in Sydney, and as the rumor mill went around I had many conversations in the space of a week or two with people trying to determine when his next contract was finishing up.
