No. Project Management is a skill
best cultivated and mastered through on-the-job experience and real-life
scenario project situations. Good project managers not only know the fundamental
lessons learned but also acquire the discipline through experience. Job
description for a project manager can vary by industry and by organization, but
most project managers perform similar tasks regardless of these
differences.
No, is correct.
ReplyDeleteThere are a number of different lesser jobs that directly contribute to the project, and provide close access to those already leading projects, that are more likely to be immediately available to the new college grad.
Such as: project coordinator, project analyst, assistant project manager, junior project manager, and any individual team or section leader within a project.
I'm not finding any one "typical career path" example, though the jobs I mentioned above, as well as a number of other similarly titled occupations, are easy enough to find with a cursory Google search.
The most likely course of action for any new college graduate pursuing a career in project management, will be as the member of a team within a project, or a junior position in leadership where they will be tutored and mentored while they build up the appropriate skills and experience to ultimately take over a project of their own.
