Exactly a week after I passed my PMP, I started looking for jobs. I found two jobs $20k more than what I am currently paid.
I was ready to move to another company, when my current countered offer.
I just feel, it was my PMP certification that gave me confidence, and finally got the pay I think I deserve.
The intention of this message is to let everyone know that it is worth all the studying. In the end, the certification weighs a lot.
So don't procrastinate. Just go take it ..
