How to Crack product manager interview

What questions are asked for a product mgmt interview? How can one become a PM without tech background? I have product strategy background. In interviews i am able to ace product sense / product strategy questions but when it comes to tech, unable to show the required tech acumen (due to lack of actual exposure to it). Should I just stay put in product / business strategy roles or move into product mgmt? Reasons for moving into PM - want career and monetary growth, build tech stuff and not just strategise stuff. Have 6 yrs experience (2 yrs pre MBA data analytics+ 2 yrs business strategy + 2 yrs product strategy).

I am an experienced professional with 7+ years of experience as Business analyst looking for a career transition to PM role. I am facing huge challenge in getting interview calls and cracking it. Can anyone help me with long term mentoring to crack my first PM role? I am targeting this goal in next 6 months..

I have been a PM for the last 3 years but my interviewing skills are really bad. I have sat through a bunch of interviews. Read decode and conquer cover to cover, but even then, I've made little progress. I know I'm not bad at the role because I have gotten frequent hikes and created tangible impact on every product I've worked on. The interviews I have cracked are mostly due to luck and my conversion rate is poor. Would love to get some insights from folks who have experienced the same roadblock.

I am trying to switch to a Data engineering role in a product based company. Please suggest some great practices and strategies to learn DSA with python and SQL to crack interviews at product based companies. I have experience working in AWS data orchestration where I worked on step function creation, Glue, lambda, event bridge. Also used version control like GitHub. Please suggest a way to crack interviews at product based companies for data engineering roles.

Have 4.5+ years of product experience in e-commerce, IoT space. Finding difficult to even get interview calls. Is there anyone else who is struggling too? What are the measures are you taking? Any advice?

I have 2.5 yoe in total, 1.5 in product. Was looking for a switch since Jan '24. Finally, an interview has been scheduled next week. Now, I have no clue what they are gonna ask in interview. I can explain what have I done and all, but no clue about case studies or framework etc. Would be great if someone could share their interview preparation strategy for product roles. If you have given an interview, Kindly tell the firm name and the questions they asked. Thanks in Advance 😃

Hey everyone! I'm currently working as a Product Manager at a well-known insurance firm. After being in this industry for a while, I've realized it's not the right fit for me and I'm looking to make a switch. However, with the tough market conditions, I haven't had much luck finding new opportunities. I'm really interested in transitioning to tech-related Product Management, Marketing, or Strategy roles, but most job postings require 2-4 years of industry-specific experience in tech. I've also heard from colleagues that it can be difficult to switch industries when you have a background in insurance. This has left me feeling a bit demotivated and unsure about my prospects. I would love to hear any advice or suggestions on how I can better prepare myself for these roles and increase my chances of landing a new opportunity. A little bit about my background: I have a B.Tech in Computer Science and an MBA from IIM and 1 year of professional experience Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
