Thanks guys!

True on hours, CAPM cert then?

^true,

@EY 2 I'm in financial services. I guess I just want to find my niche and I'm looking for something extra to put in my resume as well

OP, what's your service line?

NVM

You definitely don't qualify for PMP and CAPM is useless. You'd be better off taking CFA 1

Any IT angle to your work?

@PwC 1, I know I don't qualify for PMP but I just want to prepare for it so that when I do qualify, I'll be ready. Thanks for the suggestion though looks like majority believe that CFA is the best option. Haven't really looked into it. So will do more research now.
