We have prepared another digest of publications from Artem Korolev's social networks.

For CASE-IN partner employers, it is not enough to see the phrase "participated in the championship" or "worked on a project" in the resume. It is important for them to understand exactly what the candidate has done.

Artyom said that the experts of the Metropolis company give a specific formula. It was: "I was working on projects." Become: "I have coordinated 18 interface nodes and optimized metal consumption by 11%." Altynalmas recommends specifying which part of the project the candidate completed and how his work influenced the overall result. ALROSA offers to fit a resume on one page, leaving key achievements, specialized software and facts confirming the understanding of the industry.

"The tips are different, but the principle is common: the employer is interested not only in the name of the project, but also in the candidate's personal contribution., – notes the founder of the CASE-IN in the publication. – The championship gives students not just a diploma or an additional line in their resume, but experience on which they can prove their ability to analyze data, make calculations, make decisions, work in a team and be responsible for their project area."

While working on a mentor model for a Russian engineering school, the director of the Reliable Shift Foundation encountered interesting experience of an intern consultant.

"The conclusion is very simple: it is almost always faster for an experienced employee to do the task himself than to explain it to a novice, – shares observations by Artyom Korolev. – I've fallen into this trap myself more than once. And in some book, I noticed a rule that I still use: if a person can complete a task at least 60% as well as you, delegate. Close your eyes to what won't be perfect at first. Give a person the opportunity to make mistakes, figure things out and gain their own experience. Over time, this 60% may well turn into 80%, and then into 100%."

The author also revealed 5 Things a project manager should Stop doing.

  1. Solve all complex tasks by yourself. If the team comes only for ready answers, the manager quickly becomes the main limitation of the project.
  2. Be aware of every little thing. Key results, risks, and decision points need to be monitored, not every step of the team.
  3. Be the first to propose a solution. Sometimes it's much more useful to ask the team first, "What do you suggest?"
  4. Take the task back if it was not done perfectly. Otherwise, employees will never learn how to do it on their own.
  5. Consider your indispensability an achievement. One of the best signs of a strong leader is that the project is working normally even without his constant presence.

"I want to remind my team and advise others. Project management is not only about what a manager should do, but also about what he should stop doing in time.", – summarized Artem Korolev.
