Did anyone start their career as a Project Manager or Assistant P.M.?

Question

I'm wondering if that's possible or if you must have prior experience?

Answer 1

People start at all sorts of levels.  If you start your job as a project manager without prior experience, it will probably be like flying a plane after reading a few books.  You might make it but more likely crash and burn.  Better to start as an assistant and learn a few things before getting behind the controls.
