Has anyone ever gone from consulting to a university? And not teaching - more of like a staff ops role (accounting, IT, etc). My good friend made the switch last year and took a giant pay cut but it seems like the most chill job ever. She gets basically every break the students get (minus summer break) off.

That’s the trade off! But it totally is a lifestyle job. With that said, while upward mobility is limited, university CFOs/COOs/etc do make a lot of money for the limited work hours. Pension package is also nice...

Yeah definitely. Considering switching, but living alone and in debt don’t think I can do it quite yet. Sounds great though

So, a recruiter gave me feedback that my lack SPHR or SHRM-SCP is causing my resume to be knock out by AI and human recruiters despite my position and work history in Multinationals and being in Technology. They suggested that we put SPHR ( Lapsed). I let it lapse in 2017. What is your opinion? Plus if I were to take another certification - should I take SPHR or SHRM-SCP?
