HR is clueless.  List all certs, including pre-reqs that we all know a
higher cert holds.  I list CCNA and CCDA in addition to the CCNP and CCDP in
my certs section (but I also break down when I obtained them by date).
Also, don't just list "CCNP" but include what it stands for and order the
certs with the highest listed first:

a.. Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP)
  a.. 640-503 Routing
  b.. 640-504 Switching
  c.. 640-505 Remote Access
  d.. 640-506 Support / Internetwork Troubleshooting
b.. Cisco Certified Design Professional (CCDP)
  a.. 640-503 Routing
  b.. 640-504 Switching
  c.. 640-505 Remote Access
  d.. 640-025 Internetwork Design
c.. Cisco Certified Network Associate (640-407 CCNA)
d.. Cisco Certified Design Associate (640-441 CCDA)
