RE: Brainbench Oracle certifications

Never even heard of it.

If it's a valid test (as in - if it measures what it purports to measure) then it's interesting, but if employers have never heard of it it's useless in that regard.

One certain company (to remain nameless) is asking employees to obtain at least 4 Brainbench Certifications this year. And that company also uses Brainbench assessment tests for pre-employment screening. So there are certain employers taking advantage of Brainbench. But otherwise, I haven't found my Brainbench certifications to have much meaning to potential employers.
