The worst is when people put MBA, PMP, SAFe in their signature it’s like ok hardo I see you...didn’t know your signature was an extension of your resume smh

So much more swag to put nothing in your signature and let people find out later.

PMP is not useless. Many companies will throw out your resume if you don't have it. Once you pass that step, its useless.

Just don’t.

How about CISSP?

The whole point of certification is to let people know you know something. It definitely helps you get the first impression right. Don’t listen to the naysayers, a PMP in your signature helps you start at a higher level in your internal and external interactions

I’ve been here many a time before. I’ve slowly moved away from adding certs to my signature. I’ve substituted them with a brief headline highlighting my relevant areas of expertise, as MBA, PMP, PMI-ACP, UXC,CISSP doesn’t tell you a ton, and buries your name lol.

I put my hard earned 4 video later digital acumen badge next to my name

Any tips for how an undergrad (i have a politics degree) could position herself as ready for financial/corp comms? Perhaps, any specific certification?

What could be the issue?
