I only have about 20 months of on job experience that is about 3200+ hours. But have used Solidworks for 3.5 years:

At home with student and evaluation editions.
At school.
And on the job.

I am in the process of trying to get my CSWP to find a job. How much is a CSWP worth in the eyes of a future employer? Or what will future employers give me credit for having a CSWP? I already have the CSWA. Being only almost 2 years in this field, a bad economy and dont have the 3, 5 or 7 years experience puts me down. What elese can I do to better myself? Please give me your thoughts on this matter and it will greatly apprciated.
I have uploaded my resume if you also have any suggestions of what I could put in there that would be helpfull too.

It shows a certain level of competence in SW. I think the additional tests are more valuable. I have no need for sheetmetal but I use surfacing every day.

People missed the best perk. The CSWP party at World!
