I find it hard to find actually skilled people period. If someone is not willing to learn WO then I think that they are either thinking about the job they will get after this one or not interested in learning something new. In either case, I don't want them. And I tend to be cautious about people with too many certifications. Passing tests makes you a good student, not a good developer.
