In the summer of 2017, a warehouse and distribution center design/build company came to us with the objective of creating a predictive test program to help them hire successful Project Managers with greater consistency.
Project management has been a very important leadership role for various businesses and industries over last 25-plus years. For this construction company, it is clearly a mission critical job. Their typical candidate has a four-year mechanical or civil engineering degree. While candidates may have summer internships with the company or other firms, they are most often hired right out of college so they can be trained and culturally molded without the baggage of counterproductive habits. In some six to eight months, they are expected to become the CEO’s of multi-million-dollar construction programs and to create “raving fan” customers.
The job entails facility design, establishing deals with subcontractors, leading efficient project execution, and ensuring customer and local government approval at every key phase.
