Certifications vs experience debate: What matters more in 2025?
#1
The certifications vs experience debate seems to be heating up again, and I'm curious where people stand on this in 2025. As a career coach, I see both sides of the argument.

Some employers seem to value certifications highly, while others prioritize hands-on experience. What's been your experience in the job market?

Do you think certain certifications can compensate for lack of experience, or is experience always king? I'm particularly interested in hearing from hiring managers and those who've recently changed jobs.
