Common questions

How many project management jobs are listed right now?

There are 4 current listings on this page. Listings are refreshed from their sources regularly and removed when they close.

Can people over 50 or 60 apply for these project management jobs?

Yes. Every job here is open to all qualified applicants. In the United States, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act protects applicants and employees aged 40 and older from age discrimination by employers with 20 or more employees, and many state laws go further.

How much do project management jobs pay?

Among current listings that state their pay, the range is $63,795 to $197,200 a year (3 listings with yearly pay). Many listings don't include pay, so ask the employer before you accept an interview.

Are any of these project management jobs remote or part-time?

Of the 4 current listings, 0 are remote and 0 are part-time, based on how the employer describes the job.

Can I become a project manager without the title on my resume?

Often, yes. Describe projects you led with clear results: what you delivered, for whom and how you kept it on track. Many employers care about demonstrated experience. A recognized certification can help show that you know standard methods.

Is a PMP certification worth it later in my career?

It depends on your field and goals. Many project management listings mention the PMP, and it signals familiarity with standard methods. It requires documented project experience, training hours and an exam. Check whether listings you are interested in actually ask for it before investing.
