I graduated with an MIS degree in 2021. It was tough finding a job so I took the first I could find. Now I’m in a job that doesn’t have a lot of growth. I’m managing projects and interacting with the client and dev teams. But I’m looking to switch to a different company. I don’t have any certifications. What certifications should I get? I don’t really know what to get into so any advice helps.

Expand on what you want to be doing. That will determine which certs will help you get there. Dedicate 1 hour a day to WIN (What I Need). This is focus time on your growth.

Not for entry level workers.

If you are managing projects, work toward getting a PMP.

MIS is a broad based degree. Narrow your focus on what you would like to do. Then use the S.M.A.R.T. goal model. For example, if you to do project management, you could obtain a Google Project Management Certification or a PMP but you should also take a Scrum Master course to understand Agile methodology.
