I came here to thank you whole heartedly for your videos. I am already into PM domain from last 5 years, but implementing principles that you share in your videos have helped me in successful delivery of a project, I gained appreciations from my critical clients. Thank you ❤, Please keep up the good work.
Hi, It was a great video. I'm from a mechanical engineer and I want to become a project manager in IT. Can I enroll in PM IT course ? I have relavent experience in IT field and worked as application engineer
Hi Kamal, Sure, if you want to become an IT PM - your experience is relevant. Though you need to try to find leadership experience as well. Yes, getting the basic knowledge of project management is a benefit during job search. Have you checked my course? It might be right for you.
Frankly speaking, I have no direct experience in Network Infrastructure projects. Though, I do anticipate that a PM in that domain should have solid technical background. At least you need to have clear understanding of how networks actually work, what hardware is involved and how it all works together. If we talk about interview questions, then you need to be ready for domain-specific question in addition to all the question I mentioned here.
@@ITProjectManagers actually I moved from manufacturing industry to IT industry. My degree is it. But i take first opportunity in different industry and worked as project coordinator for 2 years.
If you can communicate the lack of staff to the Project Owners, do so. Let them know it’s a constraint. After that, plan your project with this constrain in mind. Sometimes you are not allowed to notify your Project Owners that you lack people and you can’t hire them quickly. In this case, go to your boss and ensure they know it. They should accept it as a risk. And in case of delays and unhappy project owners, they’ll have to support you.
Abdul, in most cases, it’s a problem with your CV. You don’t show that you can solve technical challenges with your leadership skills (read without technical background). Go here: pmbasics101.com/ and grab my free Guide for Project Manager. After that, write me an email with more details. I’ll try to help you out.
how can I answer this question: say, a company is doing projects in agile scrum framework. when scrum becomes a mini waterfall, initially we get requirements and start developing software product and in the end, QA tests will be done. Therefore, at the beginning of sprint QA engineers will be not utilized fully because they don't have code to test. How we can tackle this kind of question?
That’s a good question @sachiguns. Usually, the QA team has a lot of work to do before the first results of development. If it’s the start of a project they need to write a Test Strategy. For each spring and each PBI in it, QA team needs to 1. Analyze requirements to ensure they cover all possible use cases. They also may communicate more with developers to ensure they understand requirements the same way. In general, the QA team works on preventing defects in the first place. 2. Create Test Cases, Test Suits. 3. Prepare any required information, files, mindmaps, etc that will speed up their future work.
@@ITProjectManagers Thanks for the swift reply. I want to move in to the IT PM sector. I have some knowledge about project management. How can i get typical understanding about workflow of IT project magement.
@@teabag2258381, To start with, you need to learn two things: SDLC: pmbasics101.com/software-development-life-cycle/ Scrum: pmbasics101.com/scrum/ On Scrum and Kanban, you need to learn them well or even get training. It's a must-have for IT. Additionally, you need to be curious and aware of the technology and software in general. I don't say you need to learn technical skills but you need to be aware of how software (including Web) works. At least on a basic level of understanding.
