Success Stories

  • I looked to Google Career Certificates for hiring because I needed both speed and candidate quality—why would I wait weeks for a great candidate when I could find a stronger candidate through the consortium hiring platform more quickly? Hiring can be difficult since there’s not a 1:1 match in job titles and applicants’ past work experience. Because the Google Career Certificate program is skills-based, we’re able to consider candidates based on what the actual job needs are.

    Kim Sneeder, Managing Director at CareerCircle

  • As a technology company, we are always adding developers, engineers, UX/UI designers and other talent to our team to help us deliver an incredible experience across the Rocket Platform. The Google Career Certificate program provides a great way for us to hire skilled team members and provide them with a meaningful career in pursuit of our mission – simplifying life's most complex moments so each of our clients can live their dream.

    KimArie Yowell, Chief Learning Officer serving Rocket Companies

  • Candidates who have taken the certificate program have the skills around analytics, project management, and UX design that we’re actively hiring for and need at Deloitte. Partnering with Google as an employer consortium member helps us live our diversity, equity and inclusion strategy. We're able to bring in folks that we maybe have not reached out to before to join Deloitte, who we know will have the right skills because they've completed these Google Career Certificates.

    Martin Kamen, Principal at Deloitte
