3 Ways Certifications and Micro-Credentials Help Get Testers Back on the Job


When employers have their choice of software testers, there are 3 ways ISTQB certifications and AT*SQA micro-credentials help you get a job:

Employers want to hire only the best software testers – and they want the documentation to prove it. This is where AT*SQA's ISTQB certifications and micro-credentials shine. They are globally recognized, and far more credible than "certificates" – learn why.

Experienced managers know that while staff sizes may be cut, the workload does not decrease. This means every tester must be more efficient and effective than ever before. Studies have shown that certified testers are better at finding defects and more efficient than non-certified personnel.

Software testers seeking jobs need to get their resume through the screening process. A software tester told us, "As far as getting the attention of employers, I do feel that my certifications tend to propel my resume to the top of the pile." In addition, your certifications and micro-credentials can add you to the Official U.S. List of Certified & Credentialed Software Testers™ and the AT*Work™ List of Testers for Hire searched by employers.

ISTQB certifications and AT*SQA micro-credentials can help you if layoffs happen. Get a competitive edge by building your proven knowledge now.
