How does a day look like for a Product manager

Hi folks,
I have a good working experience at product management side for almost more than 2 yrs. 
I have got the opportunity to write PRDs for bunch of modules at my current organisation.
I have spent more than 2 years now living in Bangalore.
I wanted to switch the job with the working location at Delhi-NCR.
Can anybody help me in getting referral for PM/APM roles at fintech/ financial services/ EV based companies.

PS: I have been doing very well in the current organisation as this year got promoted as well with some recognition on my work.
Reason for switch is location.

Pls feel free to DM me.
Thanks !!

Hi
I have done my BTech (Tier 1) and MBA (Tier 2). I have 4 years of digital marketing and 2 years of product management experience. Current I work as a Product Owner in a service based company.  My fixed compensation is 19 LPA. 

How should I go about now in my career to scale up the learning as well as the CTC?

Business Analyst

Hey folks, 

I have been working as an Associate Product Manager full time for the last 1+ year, and everyday I feel that I am not doing something impactful although I do have a lot of work on a daily basis. 

Initially, in my first year of college I explored growth roles and out of fomo being a BTech student tried exploring, tech by doing DSA, Android Development and FE too. Honestly, I was too naive to decide where I should go and coincidentally I got to know about PM and there you go, I went on to do 2 years of PM internships and now 1+ year full-time role. 

I thought, everything would be fine with time but I guess, I have spoken enough lie to myself and now I should move on. 

I have started learning FE from theodinproject.com and I believe, I will be back on track in the next 2 months. 

I just want some suggestions/help from seniors here, on what should be my strategy to get into FE roles? 

It would be super helpful for me. 

Thanks in advance 🙌

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I'm in my first product management job and have been here for a while (3+ years). Altho it's been great past few years, I'm beginning to feel a lack of excitement towards it. 
 I'm also a bit unsure of how to plan my future career trajectory. More & more PM jobs now require domain experience. I don't know what domains should I switch to or which domains would even accept me. Such thoughts make me feel paralysed from acting on my current situation and really bring down my confidence. 
I feel like talking to someone who has seen a few cycles in the industry can help me navigate this situation better. I can't talk to my office seniors about it coz I don't want them to get a hint that I'm planning to switch. And since it's my first job there isn't anyone else left to take advise from either.

How can I connect with senior folks in product management?

Hi all,

As the title suggests, I want to break into FAANG and companies like Uber, Walmart, MSFT and the likes but unable to do so. 

A bit about me:

BITS Pilani 2021 grad. I have ~3 YOE as a PM, 2 years at a major ecommerce unicorn and now, I'm at a relatively mid series C startup. I had to quit that unicorn because of toxicity and health issues, I still kind of regret it.

For my next move, which I'm planning in the next 2 years, I want to get into FAANG+ companies, but I'm afraid that since I'm not working at a company like Swiggy/Flipkart or a company of equivalent brand value, I won't be able to make it even past the resume screening. 

What should I do from here? Is it impossible for me to get into the companies I have mentioned?

What should be my path to becoming a FAANG PM?

Hi all, I am a mechanical engineering graduate with no experience. Looking to transition to product management. Completed Nptel certificate courses in product management. Please mentor /advise me about the mandatory requirements to get my first job in PM.

Senior Product Manager

I am a PM with 4 YOE and have been applying for PM and SPM roles. However, have been facing rejections and the reason they say is my problem solving in case studies was not structured as we'd like.

Are there any experienced PM here who can help me with a few pointers on what the companies are looking at for such roles and if there are any resources that I can make use of to become better.

Product Marketer

I am reading very often that the craze around product management is too much and this career is not worth the hype. Adding on to that it has huge supply of PMs and many of PMs are underpaid. Is it true?

The job market has dried up for senior product roles. Do you think the situation will improve soon? What's your overall outlook of product management as a career beyond 10 years? Do you see yourself doing this for another decade?

Asking mostly from a supply and demand point of view. Also, has seen that the role is becoming more and more vague and replaceable.

Context: Leading a 6 membered product team in a series B funded company. Managing the ceo/cpo opinion differences, moving to wfo from remote, high work pressure and too much reporting. I have been working with series A, series B companies throughout my career.

To people with 10+ years in product management, what's your outlook for the future?

For me 5 - I start by 11 and end by 7 but take an hour lunch break, 4-5 tea/coffee breaks and some gossips - I tracked one day and it was 5.2 hrs.


What about you?

How many hours do you actually work per day?

I have adhd so I don't (read : can't) work until 2 days before sprint is about to get over then wrap the stuff up with anywhere between 8-10 hours pn both days.

Operations Manager

When asked at the end of the interview, what questions do you generally ask the interviewers? There can be two types of interviewers, one from the PM org and the other from the engineering org (in later rounds) and usually senior folks. What type of questions can be asked to both types of panels?
