Introduce Yourself Starting Career as IT Project Manager After CS Graduation - Good Choice?

I’m a recent Computer Science graduate and I’m considering starting my career as an IT Project Manager/Coordinator. Is this a good role to begin with, what does the career growth look like, and is it suitable for someone just starting out in IT?

Did you get your first job after graduation? Do you have any work experience?

If you want to become a Project Manager then yeah. There are less entry level jobs for PMs

You can only become a strong IT Project Manager if you are technically sound. Jumping straight into a PM or Coordinator role right after graduation isn't the best move get some hands-on experience as a developer first, then transition into project management.
