We recently received a resume from a potential graphic designer who listed roughly 20 BrainBench certifications under training. He even included "Listening (Master)" which gave us a good chuckle. :-)

Wow, my name in print. I'm famous now.
I used to take those brainbench tests for free when they first came out. I think I was #2 in the world in VB back in the day. And then a bunch of russian dudes that used to be below me, suddenly passed me within the next few days. I guess they just kept taking the tests over and over again so they'd be at the top. Meh. The typing skills one I was particularly proud of. 120 words a minute without intellisense is pretty hard for me. |

Actually, I don't think the BrainBench tests are worthless. Not everyone has passed a Microsoft certification, and while difficult, MS certifications are 90% memorization, whereas real-world programming is half being able to figure things out. Passing a BrainBench exam at least shows that the candidate knows *something*. I've been on interviews where no demonstration of technical knowledge is required at all.
