My job at wal-mart has been fluctuating and bipolar that it’s making me want to potentially seek out other jobs. I’ve acquired a few certifications with them that enables me to operate some of their machines like electric pallet jack, sit-down forklift, a walking stacker .etc
Unbeknownst to me, I am not allowed to carry these certifications outside Wal-Mart to use. But I know I can at least mention on my resume that I am capable of using these machines.
How would I word this on my resume?
If I were hiring for a forklift operator, and someone was a good candidate who came with experience but their prior employer didn’t certify him properly, I would pay for the certification. $300 seems like noise compared with the general cost of onboarding a new employee. But it’s been a while since I worked in Manufacturing/Operations, and when I did the managers at that place were competent, so maybe my standards are too high.
Sure. But having the cert > ready for the cert. if only to cut out the chance of failure. Having it can give you a competitive edge. Unless you know someone. But to the individual, 300 ain’t nothing to sneeze at i know
