PMP exam without having a job

Hi,


I have quit my last company in Sep'13 and am currently on the look out for a new job. My question is in this time span, can I give my PMP Certification Exam without having a job on hand or is a job required for me to even apply. I have the required Project Management hours till Sep'13. However, if I do not fill any details for Oct'13, will my application be rejected ?


 


Regards,

 Yes you can give PMP even if you dont have a job. You should have 4500 hours experience. and meet other eligibility criteria. 

Thanks a lot for clearing my doubt as I was in 2 minds whether to give the exam only after I find a job or before that !!

I guess you need your exp in the last five years - and its not mandatory to be employed - I was jobless for 7 months when i gave the exam - so all the best and its belssing in disguise and you can your 100% for the exam - and you can crack it in max 2 months 

Can you also please confirm this doubt :

I have the required Project Management experience hours till Sep'13. However, if I do not fill any details for Oct'13, will my application be rejected ?

No it will not be.

Yes you can appear. But you didn't mentioned for which profile you are working & years of experience in corporate world. At the same time without having any training on PMP it is very difficult to crack the exam. Best PMP training in Hyderabad is ProventuresIndia.

Don't waste your valuable time.

Of late I've been getting a great deal of inquiries on my post about regardless of whether it merits getting PMP affirmed Assignment Writing Service the most widely recognized inquiries I get are about regardless of whether somebody has enough task administration work involvement to apply to take the exam.

This is really awesome...I like your post and looking forward to it..Watch Pacquiao vs Broner live
