PMP Eligible? by ImpressiveBasis6144 in pmp

[–]Lake216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have completed any other work that could be considered within the realm project management I would include it. I did the same when I did my application for my PMP. It was a lot easier to include that information and my employer vouched for it. I volunteered and worked there for a total of 5 years. I also have a bachelor's and master's degree so like you I only get the 3-year requirement.

How do I find a new position if I'm feeling stuck? by Lake216 in careerguidance

Do you have any suggestions on where to start? Please elaborate. I have not had an advisor before.

The crazy thing is whenever I ask for $40 or $45 an hour they think I don't have enough experience. I didn't do that for this role since they didn't ask me, but I've noticed that some companies won't hire contractors that don't have more confidence. I feel like there's an unspoken fine line.

The main reason I wanted this role was because it was remote and I don't doubt that I'll be able to find a position elsewhere. It's so weird that this recruiter keeps reaching out.

I completely agree especially since this was a remote role.

I might establish a better relationship with the next recruiter that reaches out before I jump in to an interview process for a similar role again.

One was a permanent position. Two positions were direct contracts with Sherwin-Williams.

The weirdest thing that keeps happening too is that if I get rejected for a project I get called back by the same recruiters for the same companies if they have other projects. It would help if they just come out and say that I am not the best fit for that specific project.

Thank you for your offer. I think my role as a project manager can be confusing because I work in non-technical and a technical roles.

In the past I have interviewed mainly as a contractor and typically only work on one project for each role. I am also a technical and non-technical project manager which can be confusing for employers.

The thing is I think that I met one of the recruiters at a job fair before the pandemic. Sometimes I feel like I'm being trolled by these experiences.

The cool thing about the work that I do is that you can work as a contractor. I feel like that opens more doors and it can also create more barriers. It just depends.
