Should I get a CAPM certification? I’ve been managing projects in a informal way (spreadsheets, gnatt charts) so I feel like this would be helpful to learn more about project management and move forward in my career. I wasn’t think PMP since I only have 3 YOE. I’m curious if this certification looks good to companies.

Shoot for PMP. I have similar experience to yours and passed my PMP last month!

If you don’t have the YOE for a PMP- the CAPM is useful same as CSM. They aren’t necessarily going to have a huge impact on setting you apart in applications- but it’ll show you’re striving for that experience and you have that foundational knowledge to be a competent PMO resource- and the courses that prep you for those will give you that knowledge to communicate in interviews.

But if you are able to get a PMP do that instead by far.

You can get a PMP on 3 years if you have a 4 year degree. If not, sure spring for CAPM.

Get the pmp, more recognition in industry and same effort to achieve.

You can get certified in the Capital asset pricing model?

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious?
