Looking for suggestions - been in the midst on interviews(several months) and one of the companies asked for references on Monday. Provided 2 professional and 2 personal references. As of today, Friday no one has been contacted - is this a red flag?
Thanks,

There may not be any reason to be alarmed over that. Sometimes, if other things check out, companies don't bother to call references. And they often call them late in the process. So there's probably no reason to assume they'd call them as soon as they received their contact information.

Not a red flag on its own. Many companies collect references early but only check them once a final decision is close or approvals land. Silence usually reflects internal delay, not rejection.

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything. I was looking at both SHRM-CP and SPHR. Everyone that I have spoken to has the SHRM, but that’s also only looking at individuals in a small geographic footprint and within 3-4 different companies. I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks
