Certificates for IB career
Hello. I am starting as a sophomore this fall and I will be starting to apply for summer internships in IB. Do you think a certificate like the FMVA certification program will benefit and help me to land an internship? And will this certificate benefit me further in my career when I start to search for a job?
If the FMVA wont benefit me is there any other certificates that would benefit more?
I did some research on this topic but I didn't manage to come with a conclusion, hope there are others out there with the same questions.

Thanks.
Imagine paying for a certificate
I did the FMVA. The skills that you gain are indeed important - financial modeling, building pitchbooks on Powerpoint, DCF modeling, LBOs, advanced Excel (they even have VBA), accounting. So you should easily crack the technical part of your interviews. However, no one cares where you've learned that and that you have a shiny paper. It won't let you stand out as those are the skills you are expected to have.
