Finding Project Management Work in today’s environment is significantly more challenging than even one year ago, however – here you will find tools and tips that will help you to push ahead of the crowd and hopefully gain that razor’s edge that will win you the position you seek. On these pages you will find custom search engines, search tools, information and expert advice as well as listings of all of the major sites worldwide where you can find the best positions.
Before you begin your quest, you should be sure to have your ducks in a row and DO YOUR HOMEWORK. One hint: Your resume is probably not good enough. Did you have someone else review it – no, not your wife/husband, but an unbiased professional? Maybe someone who you would expect ridicule from like your sharp-elbowed brother-in-law? Do it and listen to what they say. Your resume is not supposed to be a laundry list, but it is your ONE AND ONLY MARKETING DOCUMENT designed to SELL you to an interviewer. It is the key that opens the door to the interviewer’s office – nothing more, but if the key is wrong, you will never get that first interview. If your phone is ringing off the hook with interviewers calling, disregard this paragraph. If not, read it again!
