Good point! And if you're trying to hire a "security professional" then
looking for such certifications will probably expedite your process.

If however you're an actual security professional and no quotes, you may
want to avoid a certification; you don't want to look like an
incompetant who has gone out and spent time and money to try and pad
your resume. And you probably don't want to consider working in places
so badly-managed that they regard such certification as a plus.
