  • Career change from programming
    Discussion topic
    05/05/2012 - 2:22pm

    Hi,

    I have a 7-year experience in mobile application development.  I recently decided to do a career shift from the technical side to the business side.  Jobs that I am targetting are product management, project management, business analyst, or UX/UI designer.  

    The problem is that I am not getting any of the jobs because I don't have the experience, and I thought getting the CIMA might help me in this change.  What do you think?

     Thanks!

    Hi, I’ve been offered a position as a “Cost & Management Accountant” at what is currently a reasonably small company but is set to grow phenomenally over the next few years.  I’ll be reporting directly to the MD in relation to all accounting matters for the group.  My previous position was “Financial Assistant” though, so clearly i

    Best of breed isn’t an option. It’s an imperative – for you and for your organization.

    As I have described in the first two articles in the Becoming Best of Breed series, you, first, have to focus on your skills (Insight, June 2010), so that you can create the environment you and your organization need to succeed.

  • Talent Management from a fresh perspective

    Type ‘Talent Management’ into Google and one of the things you’ll find is an array of weird and wonderful diagrams charting the component parts of what constitutes talent.

    If that sentence seems a bit vague then welcome to the conundrum, what exactly is talent? Who has it? How can organisations get it and benefit from it?

  • Mentoring
    Discussion topic
    26/08/2009 - 4:37pm

    Was interested in the views of both students, and FCMA's or experienced ACMA's (if I'm lucky enough to have them read this thread) on mentoring.

     Do any students believe that the mentoring program in their workplace isn't adequate or that not a great deal goes on?

     To experienced CIMA members, are you personally interested in developing young talent or are you involved in a successful mentoring scheme?

     I was just interested in what people thought of the options that are available and if these are adequate for people to feel supported?
