Programmer To Project Manager

by doublek321 . Updated 21 years, 11 months ago

2 questions:

1) Anyone have an opinion as if it’s a “good career move” to switch from being a programmer to a project manager? It sure seems like programming is A LOT more competitive these days than it used to be. On top of this, it seems that managers get paid more than programmers for doing a much less technical job. On the downside, it feels like there is less security because it’s not as much of a “definable skill”.

2) Anyone have any resume advice for attempting this switch? Should I list the computer programs I worked on or the project management skills I feel I gained while doing them?
