ITIL - Value

One of the more interesting things about ITIL Foundations is that there are no experience requirements to take the exam. This wasn't the case with my other two certs, PMP and ASQ/CSQE.

I have to believe that this would be an excellent exam for people trying to enter the IT field.

Additionally, based on the economy and with many layoffs in the IT industry, certifications can help provide some advantage if you are looking for a new job.

It's not a certain thing, but if it comes down to two candidates with equal experience applying for the same job, I'd rather have a couple certifications "in my back pocket" to differentiate myself.
