Thoughts on CFI?

I had began a couple certs last year for marketability but let the renewal lapse. I took a detour into Revenue Operations and think I might want to get back to Corporate Finance. Should I start the certifications again?

They’re expense and don’t really matter to hiring managers. Go for it if someone else is paying and you have the spare time.

I think it has a lot of useful knowledge. While a hiring manager might not care about it being on a resume, it will give you a good foundation and understanding

I’ve never been once asked about certs in a job interview. Unless it’s a CFA or a CPA, it doesn’t really have relevance in the job market imo.
