It works in essentially every other profession. Programming isn’t that special.

In essentially every other profession the credential is gated behind years of work experience and often a degree or course.

We already have such a credential. It's called "lasting two years at a FAANG+ without getting fired". If you do that you can get interviews anywhere.
