Construction Project Manager
I manage the cost control team for a construction development company.
Here's the first step for everyone
Make use of the internet. Join groups (FB, LinkedIn) and associations that relate to what you want to do. Ask questions of those in the biz. Volunteer to assist (even minor positions) in projects associated with what you want to pursue. Learn everything you can about that area (documentaries, books, articles, posts, talk to veterans of the biz). Make a plan that suits your life and circumstance. Ask a successful person in that field to be your guide and mentor. Be open to advice.
