There's a major, international consultancy out there who are doing a lot of recruitment.
I once worked in a setup (JV my arse) with them and wasn't impressed (although some individuals were good). Too into porn if you ask me.
There's no way I'd tarnish my c.v. with their name (although I might consider a contract).
As nearly always they were advertising today. There was an especially long winded job advert. I had clicked on it before realising who was recruiting.
As I quickly scrolled through it my eye caught the following point in a long list of bullet points:
"- Experience of all stages of project life cycle (Feasibility, Planning, Build, Test, Implement / Roll-out, Operate, Maintain)"
As far as I'm concerned Operate and Maintain stages are not part of the project lifecycle, they're part of the product lifecycle.
Different BOK may have different definitions but knowing this company I just think it's their slackness. I didn't apply.
A diary based on my latest attempts to get a job; this time in Munich. I'm an engineering graduate (and chartered engineer) with more than 10 years' experience in IT. Over five of these years have been spent in team leading and project management roles both in the UK and abroad.
