What is the best approach to start a Project Management career

Question

I have just started learning the basics of project management and began my development journey to gain the CAPM certification.

I wanted to ask you all for advice on what else should I do to increase my chances of getting a Project Management job and start gaining the practical experience?

Answer 1

I would suggest you to 

• get a mentor 

• try to get a support job, PMO or project assistance or in a voluntary position 

• work on your emotional intelligence 

• try to meet project managers from other / all industries 

• earn each week something new about Project Management, for the rest of your life 

Good luck!
