Hello all,
Would like to ask if anyone here working at local bank as program manager? What's the the difference with project manager?
Mind share the job scope of program manager? Interviewed recently for project manager at a local bank, but offered program manager instead.
Thank you.

Reporting to the same boss too. Maybe the for this bank, job scope is the same, but other banks are different? Just wanted to have info on that

Important is follow the official JD from HR, hahaha. i do think this is the case, since i've checked both job description for both position in in Linkedin is the same. Maybe just to fill in headcount.
