Hello Guys,
#googlepm #resume #projectmanager
I had a subscriber reach out and ask me to help them review and update their resume as they started job hunting for project management and technical project manager roles. In today's video, I'll be reviewing and reacting to a subscriber's project management resume several months later and provide both positive and critical feedback on how this resume could further be improved! This sub was able to use this resume to successfully get an interview at a FAANG company (ex. google project manager) and ultimately landed a role as a technical project manager.
I hope you find this input helpful for you as you work on your own resume.
