If you cannot verbally convince another person that you can get another person to work for you, then you are not suitable for the position of leader.

TL;DR
Forget about tests. Better start figuring out the code.
Full version (describe my experience).
Without sensible knowledge in the field in which you want to get a job, programmers will look at you as an interfering link. Maybe you need to go through this, it definitely helped me. But if you want a less painful way, then try freelancing a project first, where you need to do everything from A to Z.
That is .
You can be on top of these links, then I would say that this is a typical PM, if you additionally perform some kind of internal role (most likely programming), then you are more likely a TechLead / TechDir.
I described it for web development reasons, there may be deviations in local software, but the principle is similar.
This was an important technical component. Now social:
The most important thing is not to be an asshole. Believe it or not, this is a rather rare occurrence in today's market, unfortunately. You should take care of the developers as if they were your own children, protect them from any stupid / routine work (by the way, the best way to gain respect for yourself is to take over such work from the developers for yourself), protect them from corp. politicians. Just don't be friends! I made such a mistake and it was very difficult to be tough when you play poker with people at their house in the evenings over whiskey.
Summarizing
If there is some basic income, then feel free to ask your friends, maybe someone needs to make a website from scratch. Engage in this project for half a year (even for free). Then it will be much easier to get settled. If you still get settled right now, start implementing what I described from the social part (it’s unlikely that you will be able to start effectively with the technical part anyway), then slowly connect technical skills.

In reality, a competent employer will not require different certificates. Met people with an MBA and a bunch of top certifications who screwed up and continue to screw up. Then you won’t please everyone, there are such certificates for any project management methodology, and there are quite a few of them - filter here ( mahamba.com/ru/glossary) by the type of "methodology", there will already be about 30 different ones and that's not all.

These tests do not guarantee anything.
Met a lot of clumsy with certificates.
Examples of other work, reviews of former employers.
And, above all, an interview in which you will show that you are oriented in the topic.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
