Embarking on the journey of becoming a Project Manager is exhilarating. I get it. But have you ever heard of “too much too soon”? Yeah, it’s not just a cliché phrase; it can have real repercussions.

I remember when I was rushing to get a job as a Project Manager:

I was so eager to get a job as a PM that I bypassed some key foundational elements. My enthusiasm overshadowed my judgment.

After three months of applying and failing interviews, I faced the reality that I lacked the foundational knowledge, and it took me a whole quarter to get back on track. 🥴

So here are the 3 steps I suggest you take Before Transitioning Into Project Management Career:

1️⃣ Research & Reflect: Understand the intricacies of the Project Manager’s role. The better informed you are, the fewer surprises you will face during an interview.

2️⃣ Seek Expertise: Consult with someone who’s been there and done that. Their insights can save you time, money, and headaches.

3️⃣ Plan Strategically: Every detail matters. Create a blueprint of how you’ll approach learning the skills of applying for a job with room for flexibility.

Here’s the truth: It’s not about never feeling qualified enough to become a Project Manager; it’s about ensuring that you have the knowledge of fundamentals of project management so you’re set up for sustainable success, not fleeting satisfaction.

Before rushing into applying for PM roles, pause, prepare, and then proceed. You’ll thank yourself later.

Don’t let certifications stop you⤵️

If you have been looking to switch to a career where certifications are valuable or needed, don’t let the lack of a certification stop you from applying.

In Project Management, while certifications are valuable, some argue that having a string of project management certifications doesn’t necessarily equate to practical competence. Real-world experience and adaptability often play a more significant role in successful project management.

So, focus on gaining a real-life experience in your field instead. Learn project management foundations and use those skills in your current role. You will then be able to transfer that experience into project management.
