Muhammed,

To elaborate my last post further:

Things you did great: Project descriptions are concise, they follow the correct format with the proper domains, objectives and results are clear.

Things you need to change/improve:
1) Use PMI terminology - what you wrote is fine but I think it will be better for the application reviewer to understand if you use more PMI lingos
Some examples:
-Use "developed RACI chart" instead of "define roles and responsibility"
-"Execute tasks defined" - is the role of the project team, a project manager directs and manages project work.
-"Conduct code reviews" - the reviewer may not understand that

2) Some descriptions are too vague and do not deliver any value in the descriptions
-"Transferred the final product" - To whom? The paying customer? Or the operations team?
-"Handed over the final product and documents to the customer" - Have you confirmed approval of the product from the customer? What comes with the handover process?

Happy to look over this with you again after you edit them.

Best,
Joe

Muhammad,

Please hold on before you submit your application. I read it over and found a few things that needs to be changed.

Overall, some tasks need to be changed to fit PMI terminologies better and some descriptions are too vague.

There's is a snow storm in my city right now, I promise I will give you a more detailed explanation when I get home.

Best,
Joe
