I am excited to announce my pursuit of an entry-level role in the tech industry. With a robust background in sales, account management, project coordination, and experience with startups, I've honed my skills and thrived in dynamic environments. Currently, I am dedicated to obtaining my PMP certification to further enhance my project management expertise. I am eager to join a visionary team with clear goals, where I can contribute my strengths and grow alongside like-minded individuals.

You could easily go into Sales for a couple of years and then go into Project Management. Especially after obtaining a certification.
I would suggest pursuing government contractors because their manufacturing processes are unique and valuable to the market.

Don't know how you feel about work stress, but this position can be relatively easy to do. Yet there can be political pressure to ensure timeliness without being the boss. Most project managers I've known, do not take the blame. They are just the liaisons between management and everyone involved in the process.

Sorry to say, but as an engineer, this job seems like a glorified secretarial position that pays more than it should. I've had to play the part in the absence of such help and it's pretty straight forward. Especially if you have a decent memory. On the other hand, I think it's difficult for people with poor memories or people who can't organize a lot of information.

The job came through a reco from one of those house account producers. Do you charge the full 25k commission, even though you didn’t really have a hand in the sale, and the client already had a strong relationship with the agency?
