As someone looking to break into Project Management, I found this so helpful. But, what drew me toward writing this comment was - I know that as a content creator, a LOT goes into an 18 minute tutorial like this. And your ability to translate complex information into easy-to-understand language (not surprising from a Project Management perspective) is fantastic. Keep doing what you do!

@yourprojectleadershipcoach2291 Месяц назад

Thank you so much for feedback. I really appreciate it!

Wow. I recently applied for a PM job. It was a position that opened up at my current company. I was absolutely floored to learn that I had been doing this job for over a year in a different title. I have an interview on 7/10/24. Thanks for the advice! Ive been rewatching and digesting all of your tips. Ive watched a few pm videos. Yours immediately stand out. Keep it up!

@wolexjohnson2129 2 года назад

Thank you for the insights in this video; especially the part that talks about what PMs do - what happens on the ground, day in, day out: Set up a project, Assign task, Collect status, Analyze project data and Reporting

I am so glad I found your channel. Great Stuff, you are so good at breaking down Project Management into simple, digestible, easy to understand topics. You cut right through all the nonsense and give get right to the point. I wish I found your channel before my last interview, but I wasn't as prepared as I could have been. But with your help I will be ready for the next one.

@yourprojectleadershipcoach2291 Год назад

Hi Scott! Thank you for the feedback! If you stay focused you will succeed.

@AlergicToSnow 2 года назад

This is excellent. I particularly liked the answer to my technical background. The right answer is it shouldn’t matter because that’s not the key to a successful project. It’s also a clear sign that the interviewer doesn’t understand project management. Technical expertise, especially in a specific project solution, comes up a LOT. The challenge is how to state that the PM is not supposed to be the SME and the solutions come from experts on the team.

@yourprojectleadershipcoach2291 2 года назад

Thank you for the comments! Don't ever be afraid to speak the truth (politely) during an interview. Many interviewers are not as prepared as they should be and make mistakes. It's ok to show that you know what you are talking about.

Key question "weakness" follow-up: how you overcome it. I usually balance my weaknesses with support from team members. When I am too nice I have someone I can rely on to be a guard dog. Or I'll chose a person I know I can rely on to be a voice of reason, advising me to take a step back and re-evaluate if my weakness is to never quit. I've been hearing this weakness-to-strength tip for twenty years, so it's how you can spin it at this point that will give you the edge.

Hi Elvis, I just loved the way you clearly pointed out the things that actually matter in PM interview. Well, that adds me to your subscribers list :) I have experience as Website Developer, Android Application Developer and currently into Software Testing profile. Soon I'll be starting my Project Management program from a college. Need you suggestion. Do you think I'll be able to give an edge over other aspirants for the job if I apply into some IT company as PM after my studies?

@yourprojectleadershipcoach2291 3 года назад

Hi Arpit, thank you for the feedback. You would make an excellent software development project manager. Your background as a Developer is perfect. Also, your QA background is key. You get to experience significant portions of the development lifecycle from the QA side. You have the perfect background to manage development work. Great story! I would definitely encourage you to apply for I.T. Consulting PM jobs. With your background, I would even begin to apply as soon as you complete the fundamentals classes. You might land an entry level PM role while you are completing your studies. Good luck and stay in touch!

@ozgebulunaz-karatas8888 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing your highlights. They are very helpfull and worth to take a note for yourself. There is only one thing that I still dont know how to follow. Some the youtube channels are not recommending to ask questions related with training, tools and support that company provide you. It has been told that, the candidate seem more into what he/she can get instead what he/she can offer. What do you think about it? or when do you think this should be asked ? (1st, 2nd or last interview?)

@yourprojectleadershipcoach2291 2 года назад

Hi Ozge! Thank you for the feedback and question. This question should be asked for sure. This does not show you are thinking about yourself. It shows that you understand that to be successful, you need the proper support. If you fast-forward this video to about the 12:20 mark, you will notice that one of the questions is "What is the Project Management Environment...". tools, training and leadership/PMO support is all part of that. If your interviewer does not like that question, then you may want to keep looking. Great organizations support their project managers with the proper environment and that is a totally appropriate question to ask on your first interview.

@yourprojectleadershipcoach2291 3 года назад

Sometimes it helps to ask yourself the question: "What problem do you solve?". That will help you explain what you do. Also, when explaining why you are looking for a job change, it is good to focus on your desire for growth. We all grow in our careers, and naturally reach a place where we want to do more, have a greater impact, etc. Focus on those kind of things and you will do well. Hiring managers like resources who are motivated enough to seek career growth.
