Frequently Asked Questions

How should I list my projects on a resume?
Use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) for your key projects. Briefly describe the project goal, your specific role, the actions you took, and the quantifiable results.
Where should I put my PMP certification?
List it right after your name at the top (e.g., Jane Doe, PMP) and also in a dedicated 'Certifications' section to ensure it is seen.
Is it better to have a one-page or two-page resume?
For project managers with significant experience and multiple large-scale projects, a two-page resume is often necessary and accepted. Keep it focused on relevant experience.
What are the most critical keywords for a PM resume?
Beyond methodologies, focus on: Stakeholder Management, Risk Mitigation, Budgeting, Scope Management, Project Lifecycle, and Team Leadership. Tailor them to the job description.
