I couldn't agree more! The PMP test is hard but doable! I took it in one try in August 2022 and passed. I spent 4 months studying for it along with working, and fulfilling my other adulting obligations. I studied alone and didn't sign up for any courses to help but I took a ton of practice tests, watched a ton of KZfaq videos, listened to relevant podcasts and re-read my notes a great deal. I also agree that you should get the PMBOK Guide and study it through and through. There's a new syllabus/version being tested as of Q4 2021 with the PMP and the questions asked are reasoning questions (you can't cram your way into passing). I also disagree with a lot of content out there that you can prep for the exam in 2 weeks alone. Do the work and you will certainly succeed. Happy studying! It's hard but doable!!!!

Hi Kristyn - I love how you touch on the some of the chaotic points in project management AND have the ability to work from home doing what you love with your fur babies! What are some tips that you would say mentally prepare you to get through those last minute requests and how do you handle them? Are you able to share if this is more of an Agile approach to your particular project or traditional approach?

@KristynAlexis Жыл бұрын

I will answer these in my next video however I use both for my current project. We use agile for the sprints of the development work and I use the traditional process for the high level project plan. It’s a combination as my current project is an IT project.

I plan on taking the test within the next few weeks. My application was accepted and I paid for the exam. Just haven’t set my exam date. Every time I think I’m about done, I find I have more to learn. Question, I have experience and a google PM certificate but I am having a hard time finding work. Do you know of any opportunities? I’ll even go back to Project Coordinator or another entry level title.

@KristynAlexis Жыл бұрын

The certification from PMI really helped me a lot as it’s often the prerequisite for the PM roles that I see online. Otherwise, associate roles are a great way to transition into the role you want. Linked in was a great resource when I found my correct role. Are you comfortable with networking there as well as searching for roles on their site?
