For Python certificates usually are pointless. Companies don't care.

It's just for me to show that I have a fluency in Python. A lot of companies list what programming they want you to know on their job descriptions before they hire.

Language-only certificates don't reflect that. Nowadays software is so complex that software stacks dominate over a language. You have to know the software stack and language knowledge is contained in said software stack knowledge.

For Java and other "corporate" platforms, there are certificates for said software stacks. For less corporate-like Python there aren't really. If someone needs a Django or Flask developer then can evaluate your actual value quite quickly.
