Customer and industry expert insight on Citrix Education
A differentiator for job candidates
“As a hiring Manager, there are key qualities I look for in candidates. Most initials I see behind names come a dime a dozen, except for CCEA and CCIA. When I see those I can tell right away that this person not only is very well rounded and is more than adequate to do the job, but also that this individual is serious about his/her career.”
