How does it work?

The PMI Portland job posting system "pushes" emails to PMI-Portland job seekers that have registered with our service. The employer sends an email to the job posting address (see below) and after approval, it is forwarded to all registered PMI-Portland Job Seekers. Job Seekers that are interested will respond directly to the address you supply.

This is a free service to Employers and PMI-Portland Members. You do not need to be a PMI-Portland member to post a job.

There are a variety of reasons to post jobs with PMI-Portland. The three biggest reasons are:

• We have a highly qualified group of individuals that are proficient and are actively seeking continued education in project management skills to remain on the top of the industry.
• Our members are local and work in industries you need. For an example of our membership demographics you can visit our Demographics page.
• There is no "finders fee". This makes it a very cost effective solution for your business.

How to Post a Job

1. Create an email message suitable for job seekers, and send it to:
2. The job posting will be quickly reviewed and sent to all Job Seekers asap.

1. The email should be sent with a return address you would like the Job Seeker's reply to be sent to (i.e. jobs@NeatCo.com).
2. The subject line for the email should include the job title and closing date. For instance:
   "Project Manager, Closes July 15, 2006" or "Project Coordinator, Open until filled"
3. The email content can be:
   • A short email with a link back to a page on your site (see example).
   • The complete email in HTML format.
   • The least preferred method is an email with an attached PDF file. Why? The PDF files will be sent to the Job Seekers but will not be retained on our website. This means that new job seekers browsing the site will not be able to get the attachment.
   • Please note that PMI-Portland will no longer post job announcements on our site; however text versions of the postings will be available in the archive section, available to registered job seekers via login.
4. Job postings should be related to Project work. Postings that we do not feel are appropriate for our membership will be rejected.
5. The Job Posting approval process is fast - all we need to do is review the content and approve it.
6. If we feel that the posting is unclear, we may respond with some suggestions for improvement.
