Hi Siddharth,
I can only tell you, what we do in our company (a german company so be aware that it might be completly different in other areas of the world!):
The certifications can help you to get an invite for an interview. But to get a / the job you simply have to pass the interview and inside the interview certifications does not count at all. So in my eyes it can be good to have a certification but if you
want to get a job you simply need to pass the interview.
So find out what the company is looking for and what they need. (We was seeking senior engineers only in the past so in our interviews it was very important that people had a deep understanding of the technologies we are using and that the person is able
to integrate into our team.) If you are still a student then other parts might be more important. A company knows that they have to teach you to do the job propperly so you normaly start as a junior engineer that has experienced engineers in his teams that
will help and teach you. So they might not expect deep knowledge in their technologies but they want to see that you are really interested in the technology used....
So a certification that you do by yourself could be helpfull because it might show that you are interested in learning the technology.
Just a few thoughts in the hope that they are helpfull for you.
With kind regards,
Konrad
