I look at it this way. If I'm a candidate for an open postition at 'Company A' and am one of 2 finalists, and we both have equivalent experience as well as good interviews, my OCP might get me the edge when and where I need it most. (Better yet, if the other candidate had OCP status and I did not, he or she gets the job, you bet your sweet bippy I'd be an OCP test taking fool real quick.)
