the PMP certification helps you gain a competitive edge. If you’re a PMP, you will be separated from the rest who don’t possess it, because this certification shows that you have a standard knowledge set and skills which others may not possess.
Moreover, if you go through any famous job portal and search jobs for “Project Manager” or “Project Engineer”, you will notice that many postings have a mandatory requirement for PMP certifications, and some others have recommended this certification.
In processing of getting the PMP certification you attend a training program, study well-structured content, and go through the PMBOK Guide which is developed by industry experts. It will align your knowledge with the standard international practices, and all your knowledge gaps will be filled.
So, you are equipped with the best industry standard know-how to manage the project; hence, now you know about your next step, and therefore you’ll never be clueless and will perform better.
I have seen some surveys in which it was mentioned that PMP certified professionals get 10% to 20% higher salaries than non-PMP certified professionals with similar qualifications and experience. Therefore, you may also enjoy a pay raise if you get this certification.
To get this certification you have passed through a rigorous process, so of course this certification establishes your credibility as a high-level professional because you have demonstrated the required level of education, experience and competency to lead and direct the project within standard established guidelines.
The PMP certification is a globally recognized certification, and is endorsed by many large organizations throughout the world. Your skills will not be questioned, and clients will trust your ability to handle complex projects.
All PMP certification holders have to abide by a certain industry accepted code of ethics and professional conduct. Employers are aware of this, and they know that you wouldn’t do any unethical act, will work with honesty, and your behavior will be truthful.
There are immense benefits of the PMP certification. The most important benefit is that it gives you self-confidence, fills your knowledge gaps, and equips you with a global standard. You will be recognized everywhere and no one will doubt your abilities in dealing with complex situations.

I think If you have project management real sense experience then you have chances to get managerial position. Only passing PMP exam is not enough to get better oppertunity
It shows your knowledge in that area. But in my non humble opionion, such exams as PMP is just a new way of making money. Project management, it is ability and skill which is gained through practice. It is not about reading books and then passing exam.
1. Command Higher Pay
PMP certified project managers receive an average starting salary of $90,000 a year. Conjointly, overall PMP credentials will gain you a 20 percent increase in salary over non-credentialed project managers with similar qualifications.
2. Benefit Your Company With Exclusive Know-How
Because you will have gone through the certification process, you will have learned a standardized set of project management best practices to implement in your own company projects.
3. PMP Credentials Set You Apart
If you've gone through the process of obtaining PMP Certification, you have a standardized knowledge set - and the credentials to prove it. When applying for a job against competitors, having the credentials in hand will put you ahead of those who do not.
4. Networking Potential
When you earn your PMP credential, you will be in touch with others working hard to pass the PMP credential exam. Moreover, you will be put into contact with those already holding PMP certifications. You never know who might help you obtain your next job - the more people in your field you make contact with, the easier it will be to get the job you want when it's time to move on.
5. Helps You to Train Others
Because you will have the specialized training that obtaining a PMP credential requires, you will be better able to teach others the tools of project management.
6. Helps You to Evaluate Potential Employees and Team Members
Let's face it, we've all had teams that for whatever reason did not work together as a cohesive group. By obtaining a PMP certification, you will learn valuable skills that will in turn help you to evaluate whether or not that potential team member will be able to work well with everyone.
7. Provides you with Greater Job Opportunities
Like every profession, project management is a field with some job opportunities only available to those with PMP certification. In fact, there are about 20 percent more openings than there are credentialed employees available - that sounds like good odds to me.

Because having a PMP certification hands you a set of tools to utilize in building efficient projects, you can improve the efficiency and productivity in all your project experiences.
9. Gain Invaluable Experience
Because you must work through various situations you may not be familiar with in your own work environment, you will gain experience on how to solve complex and diverse project problems.
10. Make a Career Switch
If you've been looking to make a career switch, PMP credentials can help you to do that. By gaining a credential where you might lack years of experience, you can start at the gates with a higher position and salary than otherwise you would be capable of.
11. Challenges You
Honestly, finally getting that PMP certification will not be the easiest thing you will do in your career -- but it will challenge you in a good way. You will gain self-confidence, knowledge, and connections you wouldn't otherwise have.
