They struggle to explain their impact, stumble through behavioral questions, or freeze when asked technical or scenario-based questions. Others make it to the offer, but leave money or benefits on the table because they're not sure how to negotiate.This course is designed to change that.In this course, you'll learn how to approach your interviews like a well-run project, from preparation and planning, to execution, communication, and a strong close.You'll start by grounding yourself in what employers really expect from project managers today: leadership, communication, adaptability, and strategic thinking, on top of the core PM fundamentals. You'll learn how to clearly explain the role of a project manager, how your work adds value to the business, and how your responsibilities differ from related roles like product managers and Scrum Masters.From there, you'll dive into the interview skills that make candidates stand out:How to use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to answer behavioral questions clearly and confidently, without rambling.How to handle technical and scenario-based questions about risk, scope, tools, timelines, and stakeholders, by explaining how you think, not just what you know.How to talk about Agile, Waterfall, and hybrid methodologies in a way that actually reflects real-world work, and aligns with the company's industry and context.How to build and present a simple project portfolio and turn your past projects into compelling stories that highlight your results.You'll also learn how to tailor your approach based on your level-whether you're entry-level, mid-level, or interviewing for senior or program roles-so your answers match what interviewers expect at your stage of experience.Finally, we'll walk through the parts of the process many people overlook:How to navigate different interview formats: HR screens, hiring manager calls, panel interviews, and case or presentation-style interviews.How to follow up professionally with thoughtful thank-you emails that keep you top of mind.How to evaluate and negotiate an offer-including salary, benefits, flexibility, and growth opportunities-in a way that's confident but collaborative.By the end of this course, you'll have a practical, repeatable framework for preparing, practicing, and performing in project management interviews, plus the tools to follow through after the interview and secure a better offer.Whether you're breaking into project management for the first time, making a pivot from another field, or aiming for your next step up the ladder, this course will help you turn your experience into clear value, and your interviews into job offers.
