Happiness in getting the new job

U.S. Employers Continue to Request ISTQB


U.S. employers continue to post jobs requesting ISTQB Certification. There are jobs coast to coast, in companies small and large, and in many industries. Examples of U.S. companies posting jobs requesting ISTQB certification include NVIDIA, Apple, Blizzard Entertainment, Netflix, Porsche, EY, JPMorganChase, Epic Games, General Motors, and Samsung. See the many U.S. companies that have requested ISTQB in their job postings.

Why is ISTQB certification in demand among employers?
The answer is likely "Trend #3" from this article on how testers and managers can be ready for any economy. Trend #3 states, "The amount of work doesn’t drop as quickly as the number of staff to do that work." In other words, if you have to "do more with less," then you want efficient testers with ISTQB certification from ASTQB. 

ISTQB certification helps you increase the capacity of your team with advanced certifications, such as Test Analyst and Technical Test Analyst. Similarly, you can add time-saving skills through specialty certifications such as Test Automation Engineering, Security Test Engineer, Performance Testing, and, of course, AI Testing, and the new Testing with Generative AI.

That's also why companies that outsource testers will issue software testing RFPs that require the outsourced testers to appear on the Official U.S. List of Certified & Credentialed Software Testers™. Testers on this list have proven their American English skills.

What does this mean for you? Future-proof your career with ISTQB Foundation Level and then add advanced and specialty certifications. That will help advance your career at your current company, and, if you ever need to find a new job, your ISTQB certifications will help you stand out.
