Amazing nails! The best advice I can give is to always keep learning. Trends can change so quickly.

Just focus on doing a good job! If you're new, you will have a lot to learn, but if you're a social media user, half your job is done already. You will be a pro in no time. PS: great nails!

smart

You're a product photographer? This is so great! I wish I knew how to take good pictures haha best tip I can give you is to be friendly with your coworkers. Marketing can get very competitive, but it's all about teamwork and collaboration, so make sure you're on good terms with your coworkers when you need them.

Best tip I can offer is to always have a great attitude and go above and beyond (without burning out, of course). Also, I don't know if you're new here but Fishbowl has many many bowls, including Marketing and other aimed at the Black community specifically. Welcome and best of luck at your job!

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 hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

Hello! I have a two part question: 1) is it worth it to obtain an SHRM specialty credential if I don’t have the broader SHRM certification? 2) has anyone gotten the People Analytics or Talent Acquistion credential? If so, how valuable was it from a learning perspective? Do you feel it significantly contributed to your knowledge in either area? Thank you!
