If they ask for skills, talk about being good with ad-hoc requests, ambiguity, and communications skills. I got in on PMO, and had a well-received story about how a tech support job had required me to patiently work with the elderly, break tasks into small steps, and so on.

With HR?

You should be fine. Very simple questions like experience, why deloitte, salary expectations etc.

Correct me if I’m wrong - but it will likely be a phone screen. Communication skills will be measured for PMO role but should be conversational.

Got it. It’s a Skype meeting to go through my background and fit

I recommend you research PM and PMO analyst roles, there are plenty of interview questions online

I am getting demotivated, but have to continue trying hard.

I really wish luck could be on my side.

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.

I’ve doing this for a good number of years. I think I depleted almost completely my interest in this business. When I’m out of the office or during the weekends I get into a “leave me alone state” and don’t want to know anything about the office. I actually just want to get in the agency, do the best I can within the time I have available, and get out. In a business where “the most committed wins” this is not an ideal mindset, but I’m done. Anyone else experiencing something similar?
