First batch of gold cards

This is really helpful advice. It's going to save me from overthinking things tonight. Thanks.

Thanks for the frank and practical advice about project management and certifications.

The Scrum Master role does sound like it leans more towards a computer science background, given the close involvement with development teams.

My current certification (Data Analytics and BI) was pursued because they're offered through my college (which is a well-reputed, government-run Delhi University institution), and a professor I'm close with recommended them. It felt like a solid, vetted opportunity, not just a random private cert.

I get that project management has its share of headaches, like you said, but the core parts – handling unexpected problems, being adaptable, and keeping everyone happyish – are things I think I can handle. That makes it a good option, along with consulting for me.

But now I'm at a crossroads. Should I focus on project management, supply chain management (which I'm also interested in), or both. That's where I'm really stuck – figuring out which direction and what certs to pursue. Any thoughts on that front would be great. I apprecite the bluntness.
