#AskanExpert: What’s it like to be a Project Manager?

Does the service or product a company is promoting dictate what careers it offers? Not necessarily. Teams of individuals with different majors, skills, and abilities create a company and make it what it is. You need the technical, non-technical, administrative, management, and manufacturing teams (just to name a few) to be successful. For this past week’s Question and Answer we had Patricia Sagala, a Senior Schedule Analyst at Maxim Integrated Products, answer student’s questions about her involvement in the business portion of a technology based company.

Check out the #askanexpert and see what Patricia has to say about what it’s like to be involved in Project Management.
