Dear All,

The rate I propose is still valid in GCC.

However, it is very seldom advertise because the employer knows they can always get smaller rate.

On the other hand, the employer keep the balance, to hire smaller rate but the quality of deliverables may not be of high standard, or

to give high salary and the quality of deliverables must be very high, meaning should be of high quality compared to

maybe from the top five companies in ENR, either contractor, or design consultant or project management consultant.

Thank you,
Scarlett

Hi Tony,

Instead of anticipating what interview question,

you can anticipate your greatest performance in your life by hijacking the interviewer probable questions.

This can be done by preparing a presentation on How planning was done and will be done.

Create a mental picture of your presentation in case there is a small chance to use personal laptops and projectors.

So basically, all you have to do is:

a.) present planning (what is planning),
b.) persent scheduling (what is scheduling, first you have to do planning, then you will do the scheduling),
c.) Now that you have the plan and schedule, present project control system (what is project control system).

If you can convince the interviewer that you have been doing this three: planning, scheduling, and project control you have a big chance of being hired.

The next steps is to add: forensic schedule analysis (what is forensic schedule analysis).

If you can convince the interviewer that you have been doing all this stuff: planning, scheduling, project control system and forensic schedule analysis, then, there is a bigger chance that you will get hired.

Proficiency in the use of planning software: You also have to elucidate on your expertise in using planning software: Primavera P6, the most wanted or Microsoft Project (for idiots), excle, words, powerpoint, access (database).

the chance of getting hire is almost 100%.

the main obstacle will be you salary desired.

If you will work in GCC, you minimum pay is around 70,000GBP and if you go for extravagant position: you can ask for more, maybe 150,000 GBP.

Thank you,
Scarlett

Hi Tony - Welcome to PP

We do have some wierd pseudonyms on PP - D’Artagnan and Scarlett Pimpernell to name but two of the literary ones.

They do come in for some ridicule now and then so welcome to the club.

I am sure you will get some good advice whatever you call yourself.

Best regards

Hi Mr Planner
