I've been a professional web developer / programmer for the past 3 years and have a strong track record, experience, and references, but I find I'm having a lot of difficulty getting interviews. I suspect that this is partially because I have no formal education or certifications. My question is this. How much weight in your experience do employers place on certifications such as the SJCP and Microsoft development certifications? How much weight is placed on having a college degree?
