Yes. it is effective if done properly. What do I mean by properly? I'm referring quality high PR directories which are conscious about the type of the site link they accept in their directories.
Aim for getting your site link in top 10 directories. Do not fall for low quality spammy website, they'll hurt your site big.
I'm saying this because I have implemented what I mentioned above and it has helped me rank my client in top position in Google. of course, there were other activities too like content marketing, other SEO related activities that contributed to achieving that result.
The key is not to get too dependent on directories for SEO juice. Given the way it was exploited by SEO pros, it has been rightfully demoted value wise.
