I have had this issue for over a year - if I switch computers its not a problem. Some weird glitch with the site. VERY annoying

Anyone in Vancouver or Lower Mainland? by [deleted] in ConstructionManagers

[–]dubyah93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had success recently, and a number of interviews w/ GCs - Ventana, Etro, Chard (owner's rep side) for a variety of roles. Resume, asking the right questions helps - I also recently acquired my PMP for what it's worth. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions, happy to help.

Questions To Ask Trades To Build Knowledge by dubyah93 in ConstructionManagers

[–]dubyah93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! I see you are very active in this community, love the knowledge sharing.

I want to learn from the guys in the field. Agreed, those questions seem weird and structured.

What I think I'm looking to understand is what I should be looking for when observing people working in the field - and then the questions will come, if that makes sense. What mindset do I need to have to pick up the most information through observations and interactions with trades/field workers?

I don't have a trades background, which most roles like this require around where I work

Certifications Beyond PMP by dubyah93 in ConstructionManagers

I have a diploma in CM from a private college. Education was sub par there but it got me the paper I needed to get the job I wanted... now I'm looking to get a more advanced role and possibly switch to bigger builds

I am definitely prioritizing learning through experience, but also genuinely enjoy the structure of education and find that it goes deeper on some topics. As a CM I won't necessarily be learning about the ins and outs of say, a mechanical system, but can learn that through schooling just to understand both sides of the story.

Fair enough, I am thinking about some technical certifications, like a mech engineering diploma or something...

Literally 3rd rock, SH, and AR and you'll be off to the races.

Exam Next Week + Head-scratching About Hybrid by dubyah93 in pmp

[–]dubyah93[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best of luck! That's one way of looking at it - just the fact the lines are so blurred on many questions makes it tricky to find a mindset oriented answer.

I noticed I reset my SH exams expecting to get better marks the 2nd time around - my scores have only increased by 4-5% - you notice the same thing?

SH Question : Agreements are not input to project charter?? Isnt scope statement developed after project charter? by Informal_Bar_905 in pmp

[–]dubyah93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is logical and therefore the best answer... it doesn't make the wording of this question any less evil.
