Testimonial
“Although I currently have a full-time PM position, I recently attended a PMI Queensland’s Career Club event. I was curious to learn about the current trends and practices to be prepared for any changes in the market. Having an experienced recruiter present to provide insights and tips, and answer individual questions was invaluable whether you are looking for an internal or external career opportunity. Key takeaways for me were to nail your elevator pitch; keep your LinkedIn profile current and be authentic. I would highly recommend these practical sessions to keep yourself relevant. See you at the next event.” Gillian Deane

Testimonials
“Attending the Career Club Clinic with PMIQ has been one of the best investments for my professional development in Australia.
As a Project Manager, looking forward to initiating my professional life in a new country, I had so many questions about the best way to approach my job search. This program gave me the opportunity to have a 1 to 1 coaching session with a professional who answered all my questions, helped me to build my resume and cover letter and gave me great advice on the preparation for interviews, taking into account the new realities of the job market in the Covid world. I would highly recommend this program!” ~Natalia Agudelo

“I had a pleasure attending Career Club Clinic last year when I was between jobs. The team asked for pre-work and matched consultants with job seekers in advance. Linda Bundock’s provided valuable feedback on my CV and advised how I can be better at storytelling. After the event, I was able to tell my career story with the right details and selling points which is really important if you want to stand out. Unfortunately, the time provided was limited. I suggest to all attendees to prepare before the event and treat this as a real interview. Although you will be matched with one consultant there is also a chance to connect with other recruiters and I was able to continue the engagement with them after the event.
I really appreciate PMIQ team’s time and effort in organising this event for project professionals to advance their career and growth. Wishing all the seekers good luck with their job hunting! Cheers” ~ Ghia Assanova
