One edge certified individuals have over their peers in the job field is
ambition. Granted there are days when I study where the material reads like
legal notice corrections in the newspaper, but ask any employer who he'd
rather have... a person who watches the clock and has their pc shut down by
5:00, or someone who puts in that something extra to improve themselves...
Heres a thought:
Does an accountant need real world experience to pass the CPA? Yeah it
helps, but it isn't necessary.
Why bust someone for trying to better themselves?
