I have background in statistics & statistical quality control. I'm confident that I can pass the ASQ SSBB test in first attempt. Thing is that I don't know how to find the projects for fulfilling the required criteria.
I'm willing to work like for a minimum salary but I need a break here to start a SSBB person. If any folks know about any opportunity he/she can contact me.
I can send my resume & or cover letter with it.

There are many people, I have met so far who are in this "Chicken & Egg" situation.
I have provided suggestions to ASQ Certification offerings (during the conference) and in the ASQ Discussion Board about this situation. Problem is, change cannot be made until the BOK is due for revision.

Here are my thoughts/suggestion to counter this situation:
I would prioritize SSBB Certification in the following order:
1. Meet education, SSBB BOK experience.
2. Apply for certification
3. Candidate attends training and /or self prepare and write the exam.

Until this step is exactly the same as other Certifications.

4. ASQ SSBB Certification board issue a “Provisional Six sigma Black Belt certificate”.
5. Within the 3-year renewal period, the Candidate should complete at least one project with signed affidavit and claim the SSBB Status. (This should be mandatory to ensure the candidate retains adequate knowledge before applying in a project. Failing which candidate retakes the Provisional exam)

Note: Step 4 is not meant to be a Green belt status. BB BOK far surpasses GB.

By redefining the CSSBB certification process:
a. We can ensure the concepts and knowledge learned from SSBB BOK are applied in Project.
b. ASQ CSSBB will be able to maintain a competitive edge compared to several BB certifications out in the market.
c. This will allow individuals who cannot obtain a project to write SSBB exam to obtain a “Provisional” SSBB and start look for jobs/ project.
