There's some "accredited" credentials you can get in software development - I've got one for AWS, for example - but you can get most of those via a multiple choice questionnaire. Having the certification itself means nothing to me; sure, I know in theory how to set up some AWS services, but I have barely any experience in it, and I wouldn't dare to apply to an AWS position because I couldn't actually do it from day 0.

I went job hunting last year, and what I was really looking forward is technical interviews - PLEASE just challenge me, allow me to show you my work instead of my CV. I needed technical interviews to fight my impostor syndrome.
