I sent see why not. I was just reviewing resumes and LinkedIn profiles for a dev job we were hiring for and things like certs from various online learning centers are nice to see. Sometimes it can be hard to tell where a self taught dev has been learning. One thing that stood out for me. Our resumes, LinkedIn profiles that just look Spartan. Having lots of certificates, prior jobs, and other education home type things to fill up those pages can give them a real life. They showed that you've been doing things, not just crafting your profile for consumption, or as a last minute thing. Also, just as a personal this, I always love to see free code camp alumni applying. There are a lot of people who have learned here, so maybe you get lucky and the hiring manager is familiar with the program. Answer from SaintPeter74 on reddit.com

They do mean something. Of course you should. This 300h spending to code, and tells about your self dicipline and skills learned. I did personally put those and got few interviews and coding tests.

It depends. If you are applying for a junior position, and I see you finished a bunch of certifications during a x period of time, i'd assume that you a go-getter, always learning and improving. It doesn't hurt your chances, but it doesn't give you a leg up against another candidate. At the end of the day, your portfolio projects and your personality is what matters.
