VP of IT Operations — I started out as a software developer right after college graduation and moved up the ranks. Took me 12 years from individual contributor role to senior leadership.

VP - Engineering. Started of as a software engineer out of college and moved up the ranks. 8 years to lead engineer. Another 2 to manager. 5 years as manager. 5 as director. And now I’m an executive. I plan on spending the next 10 years as a VP / SVP / EVP and then retire. I’ll probably never make the c-suit and that’s just fine by me.

Hello Everyone,

I need recommendation for a Project Manager role. I have about 4 + years experience managing projects and in consulting.

I am about concluding the google certificate in project management, and one unique think I bring into any team is my strategic thinking and ability to solve problems in record time.

I am based in Canada and a remote role will be great.

I anticipate your responses and recommendations thank you very much.

Biz owners/entrepreneurs: Any tips on how to answer questions where the interviewer would want to know why I’d want to work for a company if I have my own. I’d want to reassure them that I have no intentions of leaving their company for mine or that there wouldn’t be competing priorities between us. I have a small photography biz. When this came up in an interview how did you address it? On my resume it does show that I’m currently a photographer w/ my own biz. I was selected for an interview.
