With many of our members in transition, the chapter recognizes that a job search can be a lonely process. The aim of the Work Search Buddy program helps ease the “lonely” aspect of the job search process by providing the ability to partner with another PMINJ member who is also in the hunt for a new job. The program has been modified to allow more concentration on the support of the search and is a great way to connect and learn from other chapter members.

PMINJ offers free and personalized mentorship to PMINJ members. The program provides guidance to working project professionals and is available to all chapter members. Benefits include expanding your professional network and earning PDUs. Click the link above to learn more about being a Mentee or a Mentor. Note: this program is not intended to assist with Job search or obtaining the PMP certification.
