Working with Human Resources to hire IT Managers and Technicians, we find
MANY people who put a certification on their resume and when we interview,
we find out they are either "almost" there or they plan to get it. Is there
any way to verify a person's certification from the vendors who authorize
the certifications?

Thanks,
