Hey y’all! I’m a customer project manager at Coca-Cola, supporting 10 of our top 25 accounts. Long story short: my role has been eliminated. I’m looking for any remote or Atlanta-area opportunities. I do not have a PMP, but 1 year in project management & 5+ years in account coordination. I know I could be successful in a variety of roles (project management, business analyst, customer success manager, etc.), but I just don’t know where to start. Please help!

Is taking a SAP or MS Project course more beneficial than the other for Project Management? I’ll be taking a PMP course and one school offers SAP and the other MS..

Hi all - curious to know how many of you have gone through PMP certification? I have heard that it is pretty labor intensive / costly and want to make sure it is worthwhile. I work in Marketing and am not sure if it is applicable in my industry.

I have just received my PMP certification and looking for a project manager position

Hello! I’m currently looking for remote project manager/process improvement or business manager positions. I’m PMP certified with over 8 years of experience and Masters level education.

I am currently pursuing my PMP, but I would like to get an MBA from a tier 2 school starting in fall 2023. This is possibly backwards, but I want to get into the Amazon Pathways program, and they require 1+ yrs in a job between undergrad and starting MBA. My current job is not as engaging as I thought it would be, so I am looking for a PM role elsewhere with better work culture.

Should I just go for the MBA now and do my PMP later? Or would 1 yr as a PM give me a better edge for Amazon?

Need help to know how much can i expect/demand for a PM or role in IT without PMP certification. Current CTC: 18.5 LPA
Total YOE: 9
YOE as PM: 3
YOE as BA: 3
YOE as SE: 3

Senior Project Manager Role in Boston Area - any ideas of average salary range?

10 years experience
MBA and Masters of Business Analytics
PMP certified
Six Sigma Certified

Title at my current job is Project Manager, which is not totally incorrect but my role is really niche and more on the operational side (COO team). I’m wondering whether it’s worth it to get a PMP certification so that I would be more qualified/attractive to transition into a traditional PM role when I move on from my current job. Is this something that is actually given credit on a resume or would it be a waste of time/money?

FGPS, I’m a current SM who’s separating from the Army relatively soon, 10 YOE in them military (I understand resume and CL need to be civilianized); will be graduating with my BS ORGL and looking to get my PMP soon.
What should I be pursuing in the mean time to bolster a career in PM, ProM, Mng, or consulting? Based on my experience where should I be looking? Willing to PM based on interest. TIA!

How does one go about changing career paths. I have been a mainframe professional doing production support for more than 12yrs now, and i am starting to feel redundant. I have been working in the current company since 2015, and i don’t have the same drive that i had when i joined. And i feel mostly under valued and under appreciated more now. I have been trying to get into project management by doing PMP or CSM but i am not sure if i would need a lot of experience, i have exposure.

Hello All,

I'm thinking Solutions Architect or something....I have Sec+ and PMP certs I really enjoy solving problems and I love a challenge....what other areas should I research that would be interesting work?

Would a recruiter be less likely to hire for a remote position if a physical move is in the near future? I’m an experienced hire for a Big 4 with my MBA and PMP… deciding if interviewing and leaving now will be more beneficial considering the market outlook in fall/winter. Thanks in advance!

If anyone has there PMP my business unit is hiring a project manager (must be PMP certified) and I am happy to supply a direct referral!

Thoughts on PMP cert? Actually worth the effort? Has anyone seen a significant salary boost at the big agencies (especially with all the crazy Covid hiring)?
