Are you applying and not getting responses, or avoiding applying because of what the education requirement states? I would say - APPLY ANYWAY!!! Do you have your PMP? Certifications go a long way.
Yes I am certified in PM and programs like excel and others. Just was unsure at how to approach the education obstacle incase it were to come up in an interview or conversation down the road.
Hi, usually job advertising states education or equal years of work experience. So don’t be discouraged by the lack of school education,
Keeping up your education is ongoing and highly important, as the market becomes more competitive, the courses and certifications you obtain may become a decision point as to who gets the job.
From my experience, having someone certified demonstrates a validated understanding of the topic and self motivation of the individual. In a role like a PM this is vitally important.
When I look at resumes I do not concentrate on schooling ( especially if they have completed schooling over 10 years ago), but rather I look at there capability and experience they have built since leaving school and how are they demonstrating continuous learning and keeping abreast of the new technologies/product and services.
Hope this helps.
This was very insightful and encouraging. Thank you for this advice
Join the electrical union. All of construction is short on skilled labor and you would be paid really well. Demand is high. Benefits while getting certified.
Where could I begin the search for this?
