Hi Ogaga, I just want to say thank you for these informative videos. I am actually starting my new job as a Junior Project Administrator here in Australia in about 1 week! I am quite nervous as I am very new to the industry and came from the medical industry. I subscribed to your channel to expand my knowledge and understand the project management industry better as my ultimate goal is to become a project manager one day 😊

[@fizahaque]

2 years ago I was one myself. Starting from new year I will be the PMO (Project and Portfolio Management Officer). If I can do it, so can you ❤

[@okaytayo]

[@TabithaSKane]

It is interesting to hear how you explain this roles well. I am a program officer and i am looking to take up a management role soon.

[@ogagajohnson]

Thanks for your kind words. Go for it!

[@YourUncle_G]

Thank you Ogaga for this video. It was super helpful. I have a question... are most of the Project Management jobs in the construction industry? When ever I search for roles on LinkedIn and other job search sites, I notice that a lot of the listing are in the construction industry and usually require experience or education in construction and require you to be onsite. However when I come to KZbin, a lot of the people that talk about PMP, they usually in the Tech industry and working remotely. Thnaks!!

[@oyindamola6255]

[@unscriptedwithimmortal1309]

Hi, thank you for this platform, I'm glad I just discovered this page. I am a newbie PM and I'm just transitioning from being a photographer with a bsc in computer science. How do I choose an INDUSTRY to work in and is it possible to get remote jobs in PM? Thank you.

[@ogagajohnson]

Thanks for being here. Yes, you can get remote roles. For industry, since you have photography experience, you could consider industries such as marketing and production. However, PM is relevant across all industries, so you can also try out other industries.

[@DontAskMePlease830]

Hi Ogaga Johnson Can you please make a video about the daily activities of a PMO analyst or PMO officer/coordinator?. I am currently studying for my masters in Applied Project management and looking to break into the Project management field and I know that the role of a Project manager is a reach so positions available for beginners might be in PMO.

[@Eaglzworld]

Hi, I'm currently taking a course on PMP certification. What should I look at for closely

[@chinasaelizabeth1982]

Waww thank you so much for this video. I just came across your videos and i have watched more than 10 videos already. I have a question please. I'm doing business and i have a Degree in Business Administration in my University and now i Applied to study project management as a course. Waiting for the Admission but i want to start early and i want to know how it connects with Business Administration for my Visa application process. Lastly do you have class i can attend and have a certificate?

[@shaziajaved2208]

Hi I just subscribed your channel ,I am searching for job as project coordinator just passed CAPM ,having previous experience as a computer Network Engineer, applying for jobs ,but getting no response so far ,I need your advice

[@rohitrajan5802]

Greetings, mam. I found your words so inspiring. I am a 23 yr old fellow currently working in an entry level R and D role in a pharma company. I wish to become a scientist in my field, and then get into project management jobs. Can u pls enlighten us on the career ladder for this purpose. Can we be a scientist and still do project management roles. Does this path have the potential to tske me to higher administrative posts like director or vice president. It would be so helpful if u could shed some light on this aspect.

[@adenkifle649]

Hey Ogaga, I’ve recently landed a programme administrator role in the NHS Digital first team my role involves several of the responsibilities you mentioned across the last 3 roles you mentioned , I oversee 8-9 m projects meeting do agenda take minutes for these meetings as well admin work and event managment. My contract is a full time for a year do you have any tips advice for this type of role I work closely with the Head of the programme as I manage her diary and with different project managers , I have been told that is quite easy once I get familiar with the different projects to develop into PM role. Thank you for your videos you make very valuable.

[@kwameopoku3576]

How did u get ur role wat band is it if u dont mind me asking

[@candiceg3072]

WOW. Thanks for explaining this, new subscriber! QUESTION: I have a talent in creative writing (stories and poetry), a Bachelor degree in Accounting, a film certificate in Film Production Technology, and I will graduate with my MBA Masters of Business Administration with a Concentration in Business Analytics (to get more experience with the research side of things). I intern for a film production company that is working on a major feature film project that will include A-list celebrities. I went from unpaid intern, to unpaid Internship Coordinator and Executive Assistant in 4 months. Now I have been with them for a year. I am due for salary pay once they get into preproduction next year and a half, but at this moment, I would love to take advantage of the PROJECT COORDINATOR. Everything you mentioned is literally what I do with the production company and I absolutely love doing those things. I'm looking to move into a creative industry because my overall goal is to become a PROJECT MANAGER. I see so many companies hiring for it but I just do not know which direction to take because I would like a six figure job in a large company instead of working for a small production company. Also, I don't want to be salary paid for an internship coordinator, as focusing only on social media is not my thing. I love the role of a project manager and its creativity. Please just would like your insights! What should I do? I graduate August 2024 with my MBA and want to go for a large company but not sure which industry can best let me use my creativity of storytelling.

[@princymodi3420]

I am pursuing IT project management in Canada and I was lil nervous that am I gonna start from entry level...how am I gonna get the job n roles and everything but from your video I got it all clear.... Thank you so much

[@ogagajohnson]

You can do it! All the best

[@evie7191]

Am going through the same...

[@muneebbolo]

Hi! I hope you are doing well. I have a query that I almost completed Google Project Management Programs consisted of 6 courses in just two to three months usually it takes 6 months but now I am wondering which role should I choose as a remote worker and to enter in the Project Management career so please help me in this regard. Thanks in advance.

[@Glyric20]

Did you ever apply to a position. I just finished the same program.

[@muneebbolo]

@@Glyric20 Yes I applied for so many entry level positions like Assistant Project Manager or Project Coordinator on LinkedIn but I didn't get any positive response.

[@asaamhussein4913]

I’ve zero clue about PM but would like to take it as MSc PM with placement do you think it’s worth it?

[@JapawithCelina]

Can one apply for these roles with zero project management experience? Thank you for this video❤

[@ogagajohnson]

Yes you can. Highlight the transferrable skills and experience from your current experience. Check out my video on How to become a PM with no experience to get more insight into how to go about this. I hope this helps.

[@chastitymasterton6053]

You sold me at 'GOD LEAD YOU"!!!!!

[@ogagajohnson]

I'm glad. He leads me continuously

[@markbrown4699]

Hi Ogaga as l have started studying the CAPM collection in project management recently so would be looking entry level project management roles. Where to look for them l am on LinkedIn so maybe network in that space.

[@ogagajohnson]

Yes, LinkedIn is a great space to network and access job opportunities.

[@naftariandered9144]

I'm a student undertaking a degree in project planning management,, which sector can I probably be employed cos I'm confused 🤔

[@ogagajohnson]

The easiest sector would be a sector you have worked in or have a background in (via knowledge or experience).

[@mekavarthini1757]

Hello Mam Actually now I am pursuing my MSc Project Management in London and I have 2 years experience as a Project Head in India. Now I wish to join a junior project Manager and learn some extra things to become a project manager. What can I do now, and how can I join a junior project Manager.

[@ogagajohnson]

You can optimize your resume to showcase your PM skills and experience. Having a PM certification could also help show your credibility.

[@kalkoon1]

Is it possible to be a project manager for a line of tasks you don't have a knowledge for or it's enough to know about project management to apply for such a role?

[@ogagajohnson]

Usually, it's enough when you start. However, as you go deeper into the Project, it's beneficial to gain knowledge in the area.

[@theSWI4TRandoms]

Amazing video! Btw, I just grabbed your video and edited it into a TikTok, hope you don't mind haha. Let me know if you want me to share them with you!

[@kidiemokgope8227]

Does this include us the ones without capm or experience?

[@ogagajohnson]

I believe everyone has PM experience or can get PM experience

[@ogagajohnson]

I believe everyone has PM experience or can get PM experience

[@nayasdocuseries]

Hello, please I have a question. I have been looking for a remote job in these roles especially project coordinator. Please what is your advice because it's really "frustrating"

[@ogagajohnson]

Hello, I can understand how frustrating this can be. I will advise you take up internships or volunteer roles to build your portfolio and boost your confidence especially during interviews.

[@nayasdocuseries]

@@ogagajohnson That's the thing. Where to find the internships or volunteer jobs. Because I feel like I won't really get a hang of the rope fully if it's just theory in my head. If I don't get into the work, I won't get a hang of it. Where do I find these jobs?

[@facemefaceme3]
