Well Said Anonymous - I had an interview earlier this year where the interviewer really fixated on the number of my certs. When we drifted into technical conversations I made sure to ask for clarification and related details. After floundering he became a little beligerant. Then he breached the subject of his companys entrance exams. Clearly these "exams" were all about beating down the salary offer. I told him I would think about it and then I accepted another position. I did send a thankyou note and let him known how great I though my new employer was. It pays to allways be positive.
