Dear colleagues;
I passed my PMP exam on March 1st, and am currently working on my next certification, PMI-ACP, with the help of PrepCast. My job search, though, has been a tad disappointing since every single posting requires at least 2 years of PMP experience. I've been working as a Sr. QA Engineer for the past 20+ years. I greatly appreciate any feedback that helps me in my new endeavor to secure a PMP job.

Best regards and luck to everyone.

Sorry to hear that. I don't have any job search advice but I just wanted to let you know that the market is picking up from what I see so hopefully there will be some more vacancies available as we go into the year.

Thanks so much Elizabeth for the feedback. Hopefully by the time that I am done with PMI-ACP, market would be more receptive of the newcomers.

Best,
