Regarding the "certificates"

Hi people!

Do certificates from Udemy, Coursera, Datacamp good thing to have on CV/resume/in general for the IB, management consulting etc.? If yes, which courses will be most useful ones?

Thanks a lot!

In my experience, those courses don't mean much. Industry-recognized credentials such as CFA look good on your resume. For IB, there is the Forage Virtual Investment Banking Experience. Perhaps you can complete that "course" and maybe it'll have some weight (even if it isn't much.) Hope this helps.

If you are UK I recommend staying away from Forage/InsideSherpa & Bright Network. Having those names on your CV is going to have a negative impact
