Andy,
Thanks a lot for your reply. But I came to know that there is no
distinction between the candidates who clear the exam (as in a person
securing 85% and the one sceuring 58% are on the same level).
kind regards

Hi,
You are right, there is no distinction between the person who gets 85%
and 58%. The test is planned in such a way...if u r able to clear the
exam with minimum pass percentage 52% means...then u r eligible to
work in java...
Certification will not have that much impact ....i will explain this
with my personal experience..i am scjp, brainbench, OCA...guy...these
certification helps my cv to be shortlisted in interviews.....even
though i have certification...they conducted tech interviews but in a
different way...they didnt asked me any stupid questions on java like
size of double, what is encapsulation, what is oops......rather than
they asked me some practical q's like structure of JVM, algorithm and
working of JVM, why we are going for OOPS rather than strucutured/
procedure language..diff between JDK, JRE,and so on..
Certifications will help u in the final selection in considering u to
be the right person for the job...
say two people came to the interview...one has got 2+ exp and
certifications, other guy got 2.5+ and no certification....
if both person did the tech interview well and package is also some
wat similar..then the candidate precendence will increase for
certified person..company will consider the certified guy bcoz they
think that person is ready to allocate some time for his own
development.......that will make the difference
Thanks
