This one covers the DSCI Certified Privacy Lead Assessor pretty directly, so passing it can open real doors. Most people move into privacy lead assessor or data protection officer type roles first, and from there some end up climbing to senior privacy positions over time. It shows employers you actually know how to run a proper privacy assessment, not just talk theory.
That matters more in places building out formal data protection setups, since companies there need people who can lead these reviews properly. It won't replace hands-on experience, though; that part still counts a lot once you're past the entry level.
If you're weighing career path and value here, CertBoosters has an overview of this exact certification worth checking before you commit time to it: https://www.certboosters.com/dsci/path/dsci-certified-privacy-lead-assessor
