<div>I can speak for the advantages of joining PMI.. <br/> <br/>I joined early this year/late last year and signed up for single interest groups within PMI and there's one for the SF Bay area (and whichever region you live in)...for the SF Sig they have their own website, with job listings and plus I can also upload my resume. I've gotten good calls through them and plus the rates they offer is higher than going through monster or dice... <br/> <br/>Also, PMI's great if you're doing research... <br/> <br/>--Carrie--</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://itpm.tribe.net">IT Project Management</a> - 1 reply </div>

<div>I have 40, well paying, $75,000-$100,000, permanent jobs in Minneapolis for a financial company that is converting COBOL to Java. Send me your resume and your phone number so we can talk. 2 interviews next week and an offer could be yours. They want 40 people to start in the next month. Paid relocation if needed and great benefits. Tell all your friends. If you only have COBOL that is OK, they may want them! They would like DB2 and ASP too.

Because it is the first <br/>Ebook I am writing, I am making it fro free for you until the end of the year. <br/> <br/>You can ask me to sennd it to you if the case you are facing a similar situation. <br/> <br/>Very best regards. <br/> <br/>Philippe <br/>http://lifedesignersnetwork.com</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://itpm.tribe.net">IT Project Management</a> - 4 replies </div>

<div>I'm an Access programmer who's been out of IT for about three years. I'm looking to get back into the industry and there are open positions. I get contacted around once a week. <br/> <br/>For example someone contacted me about a six month contract in San Jose working directly under the PM. However, once the recruiter saw the lapse in my resume, she wouldn't even submit me. I even offered to reduce my price to one third of my rate for the first month. <br/> <br/>This problem keeps coming up, does anyone have any advice? <br/> <br/>Thanks.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://itpm.tribe.net">IT Project Management</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>We are getting more picky about projects we accept in the <br/>IT Department as we are getting tighter with resources. <br/>My boss wants to push each department / group to justify <br/>their project with an ROI to determine where resources are <br/>best spent. <br/> <br/>Great idea but... none of these folks really know much <br/>about doing an ROI and in most cases the approach will <br/>be different depending on the project. It's not a cookie <br/>cutter thing. I may end up being the person to see to <br/>come up with a number, so I started looking for a class <br/>to see if I could pick up some ideas. Not that I can't <br/>wing it, but structure never hurts. <br/> <br/>ESI doesn't offer such a class (this may be the first <br/>confirmation that the task is impractical). <br/> <br/>Where else do you do for Project Management classes? <br/>Ever heard of such a class? <br/> <br/>--Sarah</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://itpm.tribe.net">IT Project Management</a> - 35 replies </div>

<div>I'm currently a project manager doing business process re-engineering projects. I'm considering getting PMI certified and then trying to move from IT to the construction industry. <br/> <br/>Why? I think I would like the structure (a better defined, repeatable process) and I'd like working on projects I can see and touch. As a woman I think dealing with the "old boy network" in the construction industry will be a big challenge but I'm not sure if that should be a show stopper. <br/> <br/>Thoughts? Comments? Experiences moving to a new industry where your PM talents eased the transition? <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://itpm.tribe.net">IT Project Management</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>It seems most PM's talk about development projects. How about business process projects? How IT systems aid supply chain projects? Implementing 'packaged software' projects? <br/> <br/>I have managed 2 development projects and only 1 of them was actually completed. It was about 10 years ago and we did a 'live' inventory tracking system using MS Access for a manufacturing company. The other was just a couple of years ago - developing a sales/CRM/Quoting package for a local equipment dealer. Their business went south and, of course, the new development project was cancelled. I had already done all the planning and planned integration with 2 packaged software products and was designing the sales product that we were going to develop internally when the project was cancelled as was my employment. :) <br/> <br/>I'll post some other big projects I've worked on, but what about the rest of you? What types of IT projects have you managed?</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://itpm.tribe.net">IT Project Management</a> - 0 replies </div>
