In professions where soft skills play a more significant role than hard skills, the issue of confirming their level is becoming increasingly relevant. Specialists whose CVs contain standard phrases such as “high interpersonal skills” or “great team player” no longer stand out from the rest – especially considering the fact that most of these characteristics cannot be checked before starting to perform duties in a new position. So how can an employer make sure of the skills a candidate has, and a specialist stand out from others when applying for the position of their dreams? Professional accreditations and certifications come to the rescue – we have already talked about the PMI certification for project managers. Today we will take a look at the HRCI certification, dedicated to specialists in the field of personnel management.
