Are CompTIA certifications still a viable way to get back into IT? I left the workforce at the start of 2020 to be a stay at home and I’m wanting to get recertified so I have options if I want to reenter the workforce.
Thoughts?

Depends on the role and company you’re applying for but I’d say if you’re going for something entry level or if you have no experience they help.
I know some helpdesk places near me require A+, NET+, and SEC+ at hire or within the first 6 months. Whereas I’m a small business IT manager and I look at those certs as bonuses for entry or mid level positions. I’m way more interested in your work experience than how many certs you have.
