PMP

Hello,
I am MBA Finance + B.Com from India with 5 years of work experience, and about 2.5 years as project lead.
I relocated to US sometime ago and am not working currently.
I intend to do PMP for better job proepects.
Please suggest:

>> Does one need to be in job currently to apply for PMI membership and subsequently appear for PMP exam?
>> How much time would be needed to clear PMP exam?
>> Is PMP one time clearance exam OR a one-year course?

Thank you in advance.

PMP has 3 year vailidity and one does not have to be in job to apply for PMI membership. Typically people take around 180 hours of preparation , but it totally depends on your experience level
