I have just earned my PMP certification and am eager to get another certification which will help me get a better job oppurtunity. Am all open ears for your valuable advice as ti which certification I should pursue next PMI-ACP, or PMI-PBA ? Saving Changes...
It's not a smorgasbord Reji. The certification you pursue next should be related to your career or interests, so you better than someone else would be in the best position to advise on what it might be. Saving Changes...
My interest and passion is Project Management. Am looking for a new opportunity in a new country and am looking for a certification that gives me an edge over other candidates. In that respect do you have any recommendation. Saving Changes...

With so many companies going Agile, the ACP may give you an edge or a Scum Master. Another option is the RMP. Risk Management is so important and could be a good compliment to your PMP.
These are just my thoughts. You need to think about what interests you most.

To go for RMP, you need 4500 hours of risk management experience.
Why do you want a credential? What career path are you hoping to pursue, in what location, and in what domain?
If you don't answer these questions first and then focus your efforts based on those answers, just picking a credential because it looks popular is a waste of time & (a lot of) money.
