Hi All

Does a Certification from Udemy matter and give you an extra edge?

I mean, since it's so pocket friendly (mostly), do companies even consider this on resume?

Please share if any experience on the matter.

Everything relevant that you have ‘actually done’, deserves a mention in the Resume.

However, here is the catch. There are two keywords - ‘relevance’, and ‘actually done’.

Udemy is a fairly well known online learning platform. Given that, it is highly likely that your interviewer/ potential employer would be aware of it. So you need not worry much about that.Including a Udemy course in your resume will have the benefits like
It will send a message to the employer that you are serious, hardworking and dedicated towards the job.
It will certainly give you an edge in terms of the knowledge and exposure that you have about the skill/job.
What you did in the course can become a major talking point during the personal interaction.
And yes, it will surely decorate your resume!
So if you have done a Udemy course that is relevant for a particular role, and you have done it properly, feel free to include it in your resume.

Thank you for your advice.

I work with an IT training company and I can say that certifications do help. Personally, I think Udemy has less value versus a computer institute as it's easier. Udemy adds value, but a computer institute course is considered more valuable in my opinion and based off what I see from offers my students are getting

Background check question. Had a grad school project on my resume with a company. Project was 8 months work with company and 3 months of prep training. This was considered a volunteer role and I have no W2s or anything associated.

On my BGC I listed the 11 months listed above. My previous resume listed this under my education, so I never had exact dates. Grad school was several years back.

Q1 is this kosher to list 11 months?
Q2 anything I should do to clarify?
Q3 does MBB care about vol?

Is there irony in the fact that HR and leadership of sales organizations ghost candidates? The very people that stress over prospects disappearing turn around and do the same thing to people they've interviewed 2, 3, or more times.

I'm 4 for 4 this month being ghosted for roles that I'm well qualified for and either advanced in the process or told I would be.

This is brutal.

I posted an opening on my team on my LinkedIn. I’m not the hiring manager. Someone I do not know reached out and said she knew someone for the job. She passed along the resume. I asked if she applied online and said I was happy to put her resume in front of the hiring manager. The person let me know her contact had not applied, and had questions. So, I should emailed her. Is this normal? I was a little out off because if I was the candidate I would reach out myself.

Fellow fishes, an observation. What explains the sudden rise in salaries in new hires.
In 2017/8, $/₹ was 65. Today it's at 80. That's a 20% depreciation over 2017/8 levels. Now, between then and now, salaries may have been corrected 50%. Factor in inflation, and you will see that the hike is just about 20% over a 4 time period. Doesn't seem like big number anymore.
