But if you don't have that experience, and you can't get the opportunity to get it it because you don't have previous experience (the old catch-22), then a fairly well regarded cert is going to help justify giving you a chance. The cert on its own probably won't clinch anything for you, but the cert plus other real world experiences here and there might do the trick.
