This. A recruiter called me today and she's like your background is a good fit blah blah blah and I stop her like, "I don't have my PMP". She said "Oh they aren't looking for that, they want someone with the experience".
She said this based on a copy of my chronological resume that she pulled because I worked with another woman in their org last month (Same company, different role).I created a combo resume that highlights some functional areas as well as lists my chronological experience, so I sent that to her as well and a copy of the PM certificate I received from my graduate class. Like, I KNOW this stuff, I just need to apply it professionally. I've decided to go for my PMP by my birthday, so it's not even something I have to concern myself with for long, but I am lowkey mad I passed on a bunch of PM roles because of that.

It's amazing how certain people make it in life. I am in software support. This one white dude is middle aged and has a bachelor's in computer engineering and kind of looks the part of someone that knows some shyt and can get shyt done . This motherfukker is one of the most helpless able body people you could ever work with. Dude never has any concrete answers to anything and has zero confidence.
He's one of those " uhm ok...well I'll guess I'll see what I can do" type of guys. You can lay it all out for him like man just look this info up, follow the documentation,troubleshoot from there and you should be good, you got it? "Uhm I mean I guess I can try". Wtf man. You weren't saying that kind of shyt in the job interview

If there’s one thing I’ve come to appreciate about this lockdown/WFH thing is the willingness of other firms to engage on projects globally.
Offer came in today.Have a company that is really interested in me a for a position doing exactly what im doing in my current position.
I could run it up for a few months and do both
. I fukking crushed that interview 
I think im going to do both gigs until the end of the year and see how im feeling. I can finesse it up until that point.
Feels good to be in this position. This time last year a breh was down bad with no job. Stick to your plan brehs
My first remote Sub-Saharan African project is coming in next week. I'm really excited about this because it allows me to start making serious inroads on my 5 year plan and it gives me actual data to understand the industry (agribusiness).
It's a daily grind but I'm sticking with the plan.

LinkedIn has “Stories” like Instagram now??

I saw that yesterday. LinkedIn has been doing way too much of late. It's becoming too FBish with all the self indulging posts and the like. Keep that thing business focused.
It's like every app is just doing the same thing. iG, FB, Whatsapp, heck even the Bible app has stories. Some things are best just kept simple.
Breh, the fake “humble” post niccas be having on LinkedIn now days is just

The worse is people preaching on LinkedIn. 
Keep your scripture quotes and religious testimonies on FB and IG.

This dude I know hit me up complaining about how he can't find an engineering job. I'd feel bad for him, but I sent him a referral and he let that shyt expire. He had a whole month to apply.
