This job did not follow the typical hiring and interview process. As you always say, it is not about what you know, rather, who you know. I had just completed a temporary assignment for another company, and was out pounding the pavement for the next opportunity. My wife had just completed a "project status" review with her team, and her boss had said he had no idea how they were going to get it all done. She responded by saying "Why don't you hire my husband?", to which the hiring manager replied "Why in the world would I hire your husband?". All she said was "Because he is a better PM than I am". One phone call later, I was hired and immediately began working 2 projects.
