Project manager resume FAQ
How do I show project management results on a resume?
Give the budget, the team size, the number of markets or users and whether you finished early, on time or under budget. One figure per bullet is enough.
Should I list PMP on my resume?
Yes, under Certifications with the year, and mention it in the summary if the role asks for it.
