career - What's the value of being GISP certified?



I was wondering if someone could relate instances where being GISP certified helped : finding employment, getting promoted, drumming business up, noticed by your peers, the authority to sign off on deliverables, being the minimum requirement at your place of employment etc... ( for e.g a PE and a PMP help with these requirements)


This is an interesting thread http://www.thegisforum.com/forums/t/608.aspx?PageIndex=1


Is this a marketable certification? There is no test involved, its a review of your employment function, coursework and community participation as it pertains to GIS and if you make the cutoff you get to add GISP after your name. Go on a job portal and search GISP for all of US, you would find no or 1 at best returns. Its no where as respected as being a PE or PMP
