PMI-RMP

Susan Marangos

Hi all,

Have a question for those of you who currently hold the PMI-RMP certification. Has it made any impact on your career in regards to being hired or advancing? I'm in the middle of job searching and I haven't seen this certification listed as a requirement for any position yet. I want to pursue this eventually but I want to make sure that I'm doing the certifications that would have the most impact in my job search first.

I'm assuming most people that have this certification have it in addition to a PMP, so it might be difficult to see how much of a boost it can give.

Thanks for the great replies everyone. I do think this is something I'd like to pursue to gain more knowledge in the future but after I take care of some more immediate trainings.

One thing I believe in is that we must keep learning.

Learning is like a sailboat - it rarely goes in a straight line.

Hi, I am also interested in taking PMI-RMP which also stemmed from my interest in the area even though I rarely see such opportunities in my country Nigeria and none of the people physically around me has the certification.
I am still mulling over continuing to pursue the certification.

Couple of practical things I've noticed, I'm hoping to take the exam soon

1) the people writing the job descriptions are not the people running the projects, and a lot of environments skirt risk people to stay on time.

2)If you like it and are good at it, you'll be an asset to your PMO org - I've reviewed other projects and programs and a second set of eyes, train, coach; particularly if you have the soft skills to make it approachable and connect with risk /quality teams

3) The training material alone is fantastic, and worth it. As projects get more complex, more expensive - it's great.

4) In some more political environments, shining a light on risk and issues isn't exactly seen as a positive. The person whose mentored me has better helped differentiate job experience from personality traits (risk-adverse, pessimist, etc.) in the eyes of many inform stakeholders
