Five Ways to Use Us: Part II


I’m keeping with last week’s attempt to blend resources at your disposal from the Arras website with an underrated soul/funk legend who has a celebrity playlist debuting on iTunes this week. (For sheer entertainment purposes, read what Bill has to say about Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition”. There are no words.)

We bring you this week’s list of five ways you can use Arras People’s website to the advantage of your career path. To recap last week’s tally:

  1. Candidate Paths
  2. Careers Clinics
  3. JobSearch Support Service
  4. Training Directory
  5. Salary & Day Rate

List II startingggggggggggggggggggggggggg -NOW!

  1. Graduate Advice
    It’s hard enough for graduates to find the path or gateway into the career they’ve always envisioned. Rarer still is the graduate who falls right into that job shortly after shaking the Dean’s hand. The way to success in project management is never set in stone, and this page (also available in a printable PDF version) ably attempts to show how you can put the wheels into motion toward a career in project management. Read actively: your ability to answer some of the questions posed here will give a solid indication of how important a project management life is to you.
  2. Social Media
    We’ve recently unleashed this portal-like page in response to the social media uprising as a way of harnessing the amount of activity Arras People puts into it. You can access our Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn pages; chart the #PMOT field on Twitter; learn more through our blog post guides to using Twitter effectively in project management; read the Daily PM Paper, powered by paper.li; and like us on Facebook. C’mon, you like us. You really, really like us!
  3. Sectors We Recruit In
    Quite often we’re asked what sectors we have roles for project and programme management available in. Here you go. Please note that this is a reflection of the various industry sectors that we can, have or are currently recruiting in since 2002. It’s no guarantee your preferred sector will be represented on that particular day you check the live vacancies we have available. Sure, it might be there; we’re simply promising nothing.
  4. PM Bookshop
    The wealth of books that are out there to help you in the various fields we at Arras deal in are plentiful, and we’ve got them available to our adoring public in one series of pages. Whether its PMOs, careers advice or projects, our library is stacked with the best books available to the discerning PM practitioner or student.
  5. Jobs Breakdown
    “So, you do recruiting for project managers?” Yes, but how does that breakdown within the industry in terms of experience, job level, and actual responsibilities? In this portal, you’ll get a handle on the nature of jobs within P3O, programme management, and both office and support roles within a project and programme atmosphere. The ideal stomping grounds for the career changer trying to get a handle on the right way into a career within projects and programmes.

We’ll keep these lists coming at you in packs of five each week. It’s a good way to keep our website and your perspective fresh and open to what Arras People offers to you every day in project and programme management job solutions.
