Construction Project Management

Like to open up a dialoque with other professionals in this field.

Has ANYONE had a positive experience with AREOTEK,DICE,Thingamajig[sp] or their collective other posts boards? I have found Areotek to be deceitful, non responsive and just plain dishonest with their job posts and the way the work their leads.

this is a question that seem hidden. HOW DO YOU POST ON A PARTICULAR JOB THAT IS LISTED ON THE INDEED. I SEE DISCUSSION UNDER A POST BUT NOT HOW TO START ONE... HELP!!!!

Hi Gary:

I am an unemployed CM currently living in Framingham and looking for work in the metrowest area. My background is in larger, more complex building types with an emphasis in the commercial and institutional building types. I see some movement in the health care sector in terms of new construction but that is about it. I'm curious as to your take on the current situation.

I have switched disciplines to an earlier one in Int'l Contracts Management. While my heart belongs in PM, this pays the bills.

Yes you are 100% right its alot of B.S. on all these job POST, They tell you what you want to hear, They have no Idea about our trades, There is no personal interviews with Construction Personal, And dont pay no one any money to find you a job!!! They only get Paid if they get you a JOB

Some companies have a mandate to advertise positions,even if they don't exist.It has been my experience first, that HR [that includes headhunters] people are the least likely to know the requirements of a position. Second, HR people are required to talk to as many people as they can in order to show that they are being productive, no matter how useless. A recent discussion with a HR person [who bty was about 25yrs old and knew nothing about construction]couldn't even hold a conversation about building was making the decision about me. Deception from an employer or their HR dept is normal. Since most of these jobs do not exist or are not funded it matters little. In order to keep your sanity you have to look past all the nonsense. I have been looking for over 3 yrs now and have had to fall back on a position that I hate and may interfere with my passion---construction.
