Publisher's summary

Transitioning into agile project management and digital delivery professional space became a prominent trend across industries over the past five years. Competitive job market is becoming saturated with candidates who do not fully understand how modern recruitment for agile roles works - at least in Australia.

They present their professional resumes filled with mixed messages, absurd qualifications, using language that only sends their job application straight into the bin, missing out on opportunities that otherwise should be within their reach.

Lack of this specific knowledge is reducing your chances of getting hired as a Scrum Master, or for any other job within agile delivery space.

Written primarily for aspiring professionals who want to enter the world of agile project management and digital delivery, but lack the right knowledge or specific insights, this audiobook is an attempt to share my personal findings and summarize research made as part of becoming a professional Scrum Master.

This includes plenty of my subjective yet educated opinions on a number of topics surrounding general theme of presenting yourself as the most appealing agile job candidate, providing advice on how to capitalize on your current professional background, understanding your skill gaps and available options, and pivoting towards a Scrum Master role within agile digital delivery as efficiently as possible.

  • What requirements apply to Scrum Master role candidates these days

Brilliant

The author has done an excellent effort in breaking down topics to manageable chunks. Furthermore, the author writes with the Australian Agile Market in mind and states it beforehand. However, from my experience, conceptually the ideas arising out of the Agile Delivery space and ground-level manner in which Dmitri tackles the subject can be applied globally, at least to US corporations. Kudos on a book well thought out and written. I look forward to listening to your podcasts.

Misleading. Book is not worth buying.

Nothing about getting a job other the critiquing . not even job daily duties. I thought the book was going to cover some interview questions and answers, including responsibilities. I have a scrum master interview, I thought I would benefit from this book, zero....don't buy this book, I went all the way to chapter 7 thinking he was going to discuss info that's not obvious. this is a rip off
