[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In another post someone (not me) asked about jobs where you help other people solve problems and someone suggested project management and gave a brief description of the field. I never knew what project management really was but the description sounded interesting to me and like it might fit my skills and interests. I really love to find ways of improving getting things done, improve communication, set up better business processes, etc. Am I correct in understanding that these are skills that would be used in project management? I've done a little googling but it's still a little nebulous to me. Any suggestions on where to go to read more about it? How did you get into project management? What is the job market like? Can you walk me through a typical day? I would appreciate anything you can tell me! [/quote]

I looked into project management, but then realised that I am not cut out for it. PMI is the place to start - the certification means a lot in the PM world.

I am in IT and the PM in my group works off a detailed project schedule. He manages the timelines and resources for every single task and organises a meeting of all the stakeholders (Developers, BA, QA) about 3 times a week when the project is in full swing. It is basically resource and time management and he is not the person who devises business processes as far as I know.[/quote]
