I had 3 promotions in 3 years at Kyndryl, parter of IBM.
I've been dedicating all my life to studies. At the first year I got 40 badges and more some certifications. Nowadays, I have total of 65 badges by Credly. And I don't have regrets
My main badge that have leveraged my carrier has been focused on modernization and programming languages. Example, I issued Architectural Thinking, IBM z/OS Mainframe Practitioner, Mainframe Modern Skill - Practitioner, Master the Mainframe 2020 - Level 3 and so on...
I trust the best way to leverage your carrier are the studies, there is no other way.
