Why Generic Canva Certificates Hurt Credibility
Recruiters frequently encounter resumes claiming participation in workshops that never happened. When students add credentials to their LinkedIn profiles, employers check: - Is there a permanent verification link? - Does the issuer correspond to an authentic student chapter or university organization? - Can the credential be authenticated without asking the candidate for raw email receipts?
