5. Does completing this certificate help with job placement and credibility?

On Coursera, the program is marketed as a pathway for entry-level OEs like junior developers, cloud engineers, or DevOps associates.
The certification carries Amazon’s brand credibility, aligning with AWS and full-stack expectations.
However, community feedback highlights that certificates alone are not enough. One user said:
“The certificate itself on the resume is worth nothing. But if you use those skills… to build something… that might be worth something to the recruiter.”
Another noted: “They are great for resume padding if you have a skinny looking resume.”
