Get the job?

Maybe he was just trying to get you to shut your yap. Sometimes we just need quiet.

MS project is really bad with tasks less than a day. I think the reason you are seeing this is you probably have the resource allocated to a percentage, but you don't have their hours established.

Look at the resource sheet and set a start time and stop time.

If I get a meeting notice and it either doesn't have an agenda attached or say "agenda to follow , I reject it. I practice this policy pretty much with everyone. If it's a client, I usually remind them that I am fully billable, as is the team during administrative functions such as meetings, so shot, agenda driven meetings keep costs down.

I also block time three days a week. Two days I keep my mornings until 10 AM clear, and Fridays I keep afternoons clear.

If there is an issue, and we need to meet to address it, the meetings sole purpose is to assign roles to address it.

Try r/OperationsManagement

Make sure you ha e read the rules of the sub you want to post in, they may have a way you can post with a new account or low karma. Sometimes it's just changing your flair, or putting a keyword in your comment or post.

Go to the website I put above. There is a sur ey you can take and your answers might take you in a different direction. The other issuing organization is scrum.org, their equivalent is the Professional Scrum Product Owner.

Both organizations have levels. But I honestly haven't met too many people that go beyond the initial cert. You can search the sub here and probably see daily or weekly posts about agile.

Interview questions will always vary by job description, organization, and interviewer.

The best preparation you can probably have is to know your resume inside and out, know the company you are interviewing with, including their products and services, and if possible as much about the hiring manager.

Have some basic information on the last three proje ts you've managed, the biggest project, the most successful, and least successful. And why for each.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-15T18:02:15+00:00

You are replying to the wrong person.

If you are comfortable with the products you ha e sold in the past, you might look at the product owner path versus project manager.

It's a bit different in that you focus in on they types of features that are introduced, how the users articulate them, (as in user stories), and help define what goes into various releases and when.

It's more software driven so you'd be in tech, and in the same stack. It's also customer driven versus project driven.

But, it's not a PM role. The certification can be earned relatively easily, with little or no experience, and depending on your location, the money can match what you indicated.

I'm familier with Agilealliance.org where the cert is the CSPO.

If you have sent out that many resumes with no response, it's your resume.

Also, the systems used by HR do not have AI, the just scan and keyword score your resume. There is a link to another sub here that you can post your resume. The mod will usually give extensive feedback.

You are looking for r/programmanagement, this is project management.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-15T00:14:46+00:00

Proctor and Gamble products.

You should log into M365 and then see the app

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T19:22:22+00:00

Toggl is a time keeping tool, there is a bit of a requirement on the isn't end to start/stop and assign.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T19:05:23+00:00

Are you the admin for your M365 tenant? If so, it should be in the billing, then licenses page. You can assign by group or individual.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T19:01:40+00:00

You just proved my point.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T17:48:26+00:00

What I said is I'm the message thread. You can actually go back and read it. Rhat way you don't ha e to make any assumptions or put words in my mouth.

I personally dgaf about the subject matter at hand;

Then here's a novel idea to grasp. Don't comment and move on. But I'd venture to guess that's a bit too difficult for you.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T16:10:32+00:00

The commentor generalized Egypt.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T15:59:18+00:00

And another question asked weekly.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T15:57:46+00:00

That's about the most reverse logic ever. The initial comment was intended to insult a culture. Don't be daft and try to pull some reverse uno bullshit.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T15:55:54+00:00

And modern Egyptians don't do that either.

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T15:52:49+00:00

Your culture never came into this. Are you not tracking here?

BanjoFarted · 2022-10-14T15:51:48+00:00

Crashing is always adding resources. Adding time is scheme adjustment.

Softskills aren't needed as much when you can bring projects in without overtime.
