Best cert? Six Sigma Green, PMP, CSPO or CSM?

Lots of major companies are moving to scrum, not just tech dev. It’s more than a style of constant iteration in dev work. It’s adds significant help to meetings and addressing issues quickly vs everyone throwing ideas at a problem

Lol DD1 and EY3. They don't necessarily care if you have CSMs but if they know anything about agile and then you're not following an agile process, you end up embarrassing your team and firm. Up to you but we get a lot of credibility on our gigs because we truly follow scrum for dev in most cases. And when we have less experienced teams who SAY they're doing "sprints" but really are just doing work haphazardly, it really comes though during demos.

Lol I thought PMP was shit and a joke. Maybe ok for Federal

Wrong about CSM. If you're on agile dev projects it's essential. Not useful to you otherwise though

^Even in non-federal space?

Agile cert like PMI ACP

PMP my ass

Yes even in commerical. Have a major bank client now who is considering staffing based partially on whether team lead has CSM. More useful in commercial really because govt is terrible about actually following agile processes.

Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work.

Tired of of the same old boring tomato marinara sauce? Try a roasted red pepper cream sauce!

Red bell peppers are roasted in the oven until sweet. It is then blended with caramelized onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, sun dried tomato paste, and cream into a silky, smooth and velvety sauce. Finish the sauce with a knob of butter and coat your pasta. Cavatappi works well here. Don’t forget to shave a little Pecorino Romano
