[@jacktennent171]

Hi Ire, I've got an interview for a Project Executive role for a tech company on Monday. Without your videos, I wouldn't have taken the step to jump into Project Management yet. So I owe you a thank you.

[@pitolinmotion]

Amazing !!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 congratulations lovely.. I hope your interview goes well! And glad you took the step to get into PM 🙌🏾

[@yuliiahodz4191]

Hi, Ire! 😊Thank you so much! You inspired me to start PM course. I really like your videos. Very interesting, relevant and easy to understand. Also, I am taking fundamental Google PM course on Coursera as you recommended. Hopefully I can get my first PM role soon❤

[@pitolinmotion]

Thanksss! I hope you get one soon!

[@olufunmi7990]

Thanks Ire, your videos are so helpful. I would love for you to do a detailed video about the PMO please.

[@pitolinmotion]

Heyy and thank you ☺️☺️☺️ I don’t really think I’ll have a full video worth to talk about really. I don’t have a lot of experience with PMO. But I’ll try to see what can be done :)

[@olufunmi7990]

Thank you.

[@CaseyAnnbooks]

Wonderful videos as always! I'd love for you to do an in depth video on each course! I am a Creative PM without any courses and want to move into the tech world but know these courses will likely help more me get in :)

[@pitolinmotion]

Hey there lovely . I’ll try to see if I can get round to that. I haven’t done all of the courses so I’ll need to research it and it could take a while.

[@KadzemClaude]

Thank you girlyyyyy🩷✨

[@galiciaprieto5278]

Happy new Year! 🎉 thanks for this video. What do you recommend for working with tech people with burnout or reintegrating from burnout? We are getting a lot of these cases and it is tricky to work with them I do not how to approach or chase them Thanks

[@pitolinmotion]

Hey! You are welcome. If I’m honest, I’m not too sure. That sounds more like a mental health thing, so I wouldn’t know how to advise on this. Really sorry I couldn’t be more helpful

[@kehindelawal7473]

Hi Ire, Happy New Year. Thanks for all your videos. I would like to have a consultation with you. I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks

[@pitolinmotion]

🩷 thanks so much. I appreciate the support

[@juniorlinden7030]

Hi - I am working towards transitioning into a PM role and appreciate all your advice - Have you ever heard of IT career switch and is it something you would recommend?

[@pitolinmotion]

Hey! Haven’t heard of it before

[@juniorlinden7030]

@@pitolinmotion I am sure after watching your videos you might say this is not needed - WYT?

[@pitolinmotion]

I don’t know what it is

[@seektruth5750]

Hi Ire, please let me know your thoughts on Almond Careers and their project management program

[@pitolinmotion]

Hey. Never heard of them so can’t say sorry!

[@seektruth5750]

Is it possible to get a PM role straight after getting a certificate, if the program has real projects that student’s complete during the course/program?

[@pitolinmotion]

@seektruth5750 I don’t think you’re asking the right question. Anything is possible, but will it mean you will get a role no, it may guarantee your chances. But probs not by much if it isn’t a formal project anyways

[@POA9537.]

[@kwameopoku3576]

I was wondering if have a level 3 business admin qualification could i get into project management with that please hope u see this comment Thsnks

[@pitolinmotion]

Hey, there are no hard requirements to get into pm ( ie there isn’t a particular qualification / degree needed, it’s not like studying medicine to be a doctor) it’s more about how you can demonstrate your skills and knowledge are appropriate for the role. If you think that’s enough with your business admin degree then you should apply, for most ppl they need more specific pm knowledge and experience

[@titimabhunks2750]

Thanks for your videos. Can you please talk about project intake.process

[@pitolinmotion]

Hey there! And thanks for watching. The project intake process will change from organisation to organisation really … so I can’t say in my experience there is one process - in short. There will be a pipeline of a bunch of projects that have been requested by the customer. This will include the requirements . The PM will write a proposal on how this projects can be delivered, deliverables , costs timelines etc , what will be in scope and out of scope. Then the head of projects (or similar) will prioritise the projects, and dish them out to project managers to deliver. Hope that helps
