Never get comfortable one thing I will tell you. Every gig you get no matter how sucky it may or may not be is a blessing. Create a a 2/3-5-8 year plan. This will let you know that in each role you take that you are on path and doing what is needed to hit your next goal.

It's later this week. For an aerospace company, I'm very interested, but the schedule is trash.

Congrats. you gonna rock with the CBAP when you get experience or pmp?
Going the PMP route... the time frame I'll have enough hours to sit for the PMP is right around the same as the CBAP (maybe a year difference). So I'm gonna get my Six Sigma cert next... then try for my PMP.

how was that? thats one of my own personal professional goals..that and the CBAP
It was alright... a little more diffucult than I thought it was gonna be. The most difficult questions were the ones that asked what the inputs were for certain tasks/processes. And thats only because there are SO MANY processes and tasks to remember the inputs for... and a lot of the inputs are the same.

There were quite a few questions that were more like application questions. Some were straightforward and others a little more convoluted to the point where I had to read the question over and over to make sure I understood what they were asking.

If you have any specific questions, let me know. It'd be easier to answer questions based on what your expectations are. Cause the test was not really what I was expecting to see based on some of my study material.
