When you're sourcing the next contract project support specialist* to drive your mission critical project forward, it's important to place a high priority on professional experience.
While having the right qualifications can certainly be helpful, it's even more vital that a manager has worked on plenty of high-profile, time sensitive projects to confirm their skills.
Traditional agencies just don't cut it anymore – they're a mixed bag at best, and you're never really sure if a candidate has the adequate experience to lead your project. So why should you rely on a project management network such as EDGE PLUS instead?
Firstly, professional networks such as these simply ensure you're getting access to only the best, most experienced senior-level project managers in the country. Membership to EDGE PLUS isn't just open to anyone with a project management degree – professionals have to be invited by an existing member before they can join.
All prospective members are thoroughly vetted by those within the network before they are given the green light to join, and in most cases they are required to have at least eight years of experience in their particular field.
The fact that EDGE PLUS is such an exclusive network means it's a much easier way of finding your next project manager and supporting project specialist. Members don't have to send around CVs in the vain hope someone will notice them – it's all done entirely by referral, and the network strives to match the most qualified professionals to a project – and the right project for the right professional – be it management or project support specialist.
Traditional agencies are becoming a thing of the past for contract professionals – to join the new wave of professional project manager sourcing, get in touch with EDGE PLUS today.
