Exactly it think that experience is probably the only valuable thing
there is.

For shure a beginner will benefit from this has it is problably give him
a salary increase compared to the guy that is not certified (we all know
that php developper are under paid) So this part is good.
It will also eliminate some people out of the market for shure at some
point. 


Yep emplyers will use it to evaluate people, but like i said i you want
to get good exprience just work on a open source software if you don't
have any work experience. 

Now has far has sun certification how it will help you get a php job.
Well depends what kind of job you are looking for. A job where you only
do php 24/7 or you do other stuff on the side (Java, C++, PHP, ...)

If so then beeing certified PHP just assure that you know PHP and some
principles.
If you thake the sun certification it is been there for a far longer
time ans since your job requires both in this case the sun certification
means more.

But certifications are just there to prove your level of understanding.
