In big organization certificates simplifies and standardize hiring process

I agree 100%.

But let’s not forget that simplification and standardization are orthogonal to Results as measured by performance. The trouble is, simplification and standardization are how HR departments are measured, whereas employee performance is how line managers are measured. Thus, the companies most likely to emphasize these metrics will be the ones with HR departments.

It’s not so much that big companies benefit, it’s that HR departments benefit and big companies are the ones with HR departments.
