Top page of your resume has your name, address, phone number and email
Now beside your name do you list most important credentials or you mention that underneath?

You’re welcome Riyadh. I believe everyone should be proud if their accomplishments because nothing comes without time and effort. I hear many people often Critisizing people who have many letters after then name, well guess what: They earned those and have every right to be proud of those accomplishements.

Rami, I totally agree with you, absolutely those people put efforts, time and money to study and achieve credentials it is all part of PPO & SDA
PPO = Personal Performance Objectives
SDA = Skills Development Activities
You know I have said it many times that the community is proud of you & your achievements

Agree. And yes, I put credentials after my name on my resume. One's resume should tell their story, why leave stuff out?

I put it at the end of the resume in a section with educational credentials, certifications, and awards.

Other than PhD's, advanced degrees are usually not put behind a person's name. Since a master's degree does not go there and I see a PMP as less difficult to acquire, I don't see that the PMP credentials would either. I certainly take advantage of having the credentials however, and I know I would not have passed HR resume filters without the PMP on my resume.

That is just my own opinion however.

Keith, well I don't see that it will catch immediate attention if put at the end, second Ph.D degree is an academic certificate it doesn't means that the holder is experienced, I have many Ph.D holder they are will to work just as entry level to gain industrial experience and have direction to related field

So a sponsor to hire someone to run a project would hire a PMP not Ph.D
