Hey guys I graduated with my bachelor's in project management, I have zero experience and I'm trying to find a job remotely. From being a stay at home mom and working at Walmart I have gained skills and knowledge. I hope someone can point me in the right direction of getting a job.

You might be able to see if there are any remote project management roles with Walmart Corporate/HQ and grow internally that way (especially if you have good internal references). Connect with Walmart recruiters on LinkedIn and reach out directly letting them know what your trying to do and see if they have any insights for next steps or if you can in any way leverage your experience with Walmart already to grow in that area.

Another recommendation is to look for resources on themomproject.com.

Annnd if you want to gain experience in the meantime, it doesn’t hurt to find a nonprofit you care about in your area and volunteer offering your project management skills and build your resume. It could even be a nonprofit that supports you bringing your kids with to help volunteer or offer your assistance remotely. You got this! 💜

Try and get your PMP. A lot of employers will want that for you to be able to go fully remote and make 6 figures.

I don’t have a PMP and I make 6 figures in project management and fully remote. You definitely need experience to get your PMP but there are other free certifications and LinkedIn learning classes you could take too.

Good luck.

Where are you located? Where are you comfortable to relocate to? Do you have your CAPM? PMP? CSM? I have so many questions.

Located in New Jersey, I never got any of the certifications because all my money I get currently has to go to immigration and my lawyer. I'm not willing to relocate yet but possibly in the near future when everything is settled.

Linked in easy apply. Set alerts. Apply to 10 jobs a day minimum. Have someone who’s hired ppl review your resume.

WFH Vs WF Office Vs Hybrid, Which one should you take?
If you are fresher, go for a WF Office setup. You will learn things beyond your work. In the initial phase of of your career, one needs to focus more on learning than on comfort. The interactions at office, meeting with collegues, conversations at the cafeteria, sense of responsibilty, the need to walk up on time to reach office etc will shape you for better.

Once you have a work experience of few year then any setup is fine. Go for WFH.
