If you are an OCP, it can't hurt (in most cases!).
I was successfully ignored both with and without the logo on my resume.

If you got it, flaunt it!
Yeah, I put it on... a bit of colour in your resume can't hurt.
I've got it on my CV.
The only thing I'd say is if you apply to jobs through agencies they rarely send your original CV to the customer. They usually cut an paste it into a standard format. I'm not sure if my OCP logo ever makes it to the customer.

Good point Tim...I've experienced the same in the past. I hate when they change my resume. One time I had an opportunity to see exactly what the y sent...wow, they made me look like I really didn't know anything. The said I had experience with Oracle10...when I had listed on my resume Oracle Apps. Release 10SC.
I've had the same problem, I now insist that my CV is used or I have copy approval otherwise I won't use the agency.
During my managerial days I once had a CV from an agency where they had put pictures of bunnies and flowers on it to make it look 'more eye catching'. Unfortunantly I don't think their client was too impressed.
For the same reason, I save my resume.doc as read only. so no one tampers with it.
I think I'll make it in pdf as well but the only thing is they insist 'microsoft word' please!
Out of curiousity, where on your resume did you put the OCP logo?
At the bottom right corner of the last page. I reduced the size to 1 pixel by 1 pixel. I don't understand why it's not made a difference to my job applications :)
Actually, mine is on the top left corner like:

Tim,
It looks very nice! I've tried to put my OCM logo on my CV but it seems like I have to attend some Microsoft Word ILT in order to achive what I wanna do :-)
Hi Tim
Can you really put the logo with your name next to it the way you have added it.
Regards,
Santosh
Seems I'm still using the old logo. I suppose I better change it or I'll be excommunicated by Larry Ellison.
Cheers

Crickey Tim, (just thinking back to another thread) no wonder people think you are over qualified. I'm sure you've earned the Dr. but it could be intimidating for prospective employers and interviewers.
