I’m a passionate development & project management professional committed to get the most of every operation. I take pride on delivering quality at a fair cost & time.
Having strong and trustful teams along with consistent policies & procedures are the most important assets a company could have and building those are my priority.

I would recommend to start the preparation with the PMI lexicon and relax in the last couple of days.
In addition to the PMP, I'm also a CPA, CIA, and CFE. I began my career in Washington, DC at a boutique consulting firm, moved into internal audit roles at various clients I had previously served, and then ended up relocating to South Florida when my wife was accepted to medical school in the area.

I've worked for a financial institution specializing in commercial loan underwriting for about 10 years. I was asked to step into a project-focused role in 2012, and decided in 2014 that I wanted to pursue my PMP. This was no small task, as I chose to do most of my studying on my own, which required balancing work, study and my family, including my husband and two busy children.
The 3 things that I recommend that other students should look at:
1. Taking practice exams are absolutely critical. I used The PMP Exam Simulator and found it to have the most challenging and accurate questions. It's hard to take other 'free' practice exams seriously when they are full of grammar and spelling errors!
I currently work as an Electrical Engineer for Areva. My previous experience before my current job was in Electrical Project Management. I received my engineering degree and MBA from Georgia Southern University. I plan on transitioning back into project management on my current job.
The three materials I used to pass my PMP Exam were Rita Mulchahy’s Exam Prep book, PM PrepCast podcast and the PM Exam Simulator. These were very helpful in helping me pass the exam especially the PM Exam Simulator which helped me to focus on my weak points and improve.

I am a 30 year old project manager at a small IT company called RRC in Slovenia. I was born in Rijeka, Croatia, and moved to Slovenia to finish the Faculty of Computer and Information Science in Ljubljana.

I worked in the IT industry for 23 years both in the corporate world and as the founder of an IT consulting firm. I hold numerous technical certifications in addition to earning a MBA from UC Irvine’s Paul Merage School of Management. The first 3 things that I recommend that other students should look at:
1) The PMPrepCast
2) Rita Mulcahy’s PMP Exam Prep book
3) The PM Exam Simulator
These were the three tools I used to successfully pass the PMP exam.
I spent most of my working life acting as a Project Manager. I used to work for big firms that had sort if internal qualification, so the PMP was to really required for the “old” Project Managers inside. Other story I faced when I left to follow a different growth. The PMP certification is highly regarded and required. Besides, it helps the community of the PM, and the spreading of a common language and a common understanding. I warmly recommend to seriously consider getting certified at earliest.
There is not a better way to get ready. From my personal experience there is nothing that can prepare you for the exam and grant that you will pass it. So don’t let anyone fool you with 100% grant promises. I took test exams from the most valuable providers online. I was extremely prepared on the theory, the formulas, the struggle...
