Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

With the present market situation, nowadays you don't even get an OA Link/Interview call even though applying with a referral, no wonder how good my portfolio is. On-campus placements are a bloodbath. Good knows how they shortlist candidates. Almost the same name in every list. Meanwhile, I discovered cold mailing. Saw some posts where they got internships via cold mailing. Need some good templates and tips for Cold mailing HRs, managers, and directors.

I am so thankful to Grapevine community, thank you for telling me this

I had lost my brain over not getting responses, doubting myself everyday

Anyhow, preventive measures are in place. Did manual warming (mailed to all my other accounts) - 100% of mail were found in Spam
Linked warm-up tools, all their verification emails landed up in Spam

Starting to see how Microsoft could be f*ing my career

Lots of love guys, I am very thankful!

Is anyone here working in Careem UAE? How to get in there, also heard they only pick solid people in India only with a referral.

Email vs Chat

we were playing truth or dare and my friend challenged me that she could get any job interview with a cold email/dm. 

I usually receive hearback from 1/50 job postings I apply to, so didn't believe her at all.

now she made a GPT to write cold emails and get job interviews.

I really wanna use it, but she is flexing so hard now, my ego tells me not to use it.

help me out, do cold emails and all really work?

Hey fellow grapevine friends, let me share a hilarious tale of my recent job interview rollercoaster ride! So, picture this: I chanced upon interviewing for one those new age alternative fintech firms, feeling like a boss, acing every interview level with flying colors. The interviewers were practically showering me with positive vibes about the role and the company. I was on cloud nine!

But hold on to your seats, folks, because things took an unexpected turn. After the initial warm reception, it suddenly went colder than an iceberg. I waited eagerly for responses from the TA team, but all I got was radio silence. Not even a peep. It was like they vanished into thin air!

Now, I wasn't keen on pestering the hiring manager, but desperation got the best of me. I decided to shoot them a message, hoping for some answers. And guess what? They hit me with the most mind-boggling news ever – a hiring freeze! Can you believe it? Talk about bad timing, right? I must have brought some serious jinx along with me.

As if that wasn't enough, I then discovered something straight out of a conspiracy movie. I noticed that the TA team's LinkedIn profiles had that same little green circle, indicating they were open to work.. But wait, there's more! A bunch of ex-employees and other members of the team also had that eerie green circle. What on earth was happening here? Are they secretly communicating in some LinkedIn language that mere mortals like us don't understand?

Oh well, my friends, the job hunt can be a wild and wacky adventure, full of unexpected twists and turns. But fear not, for I am armed with resilience and a great sense of humor! So, with popcorn in one hand and my resume in the other, I shall continue my quest to conquer the job market. While also finding the anomalies of the start up world. Here's to embracing the unpredictability and staying positive on this crazy journey! Cheers to the next chapter of my job hunt! 🍿🚀

What's the craziest reason someone got fired?

Here's mine at my previous job. A collegue of mine was fired for smoking weed in the bathroom. He got back to his laptop and he was high as fuck, I am pretty sure he didn't even understand why he was getting fired.

The head of HR mistakenly sent a "layoff script email meant for managers" to everyone. 
So brace yourself, official firing is going to happen at Glance now...
Silent firing anyways has been happening for a month or so.

Does that mean my BCG is not verified ? I shared Birth certificate,  pan card,  aadhar card and driving license also. I shared whatever experience certificate I received.  Yet they asked me to leave due to BCG. Do you think it's fair? They didn't pay my one month salary also.

I was ready to share Bank statements where my client company credited salary.  I shared the email I'd but they didn't write an email.

What's your most embarrassing moment in your office

Was sharing screen for internal call when I zoned out and started texting my girlfriend on screen

Chief of Staff

Recently, a friend joined a bank. He was late to office a few times. To “teach him a lesson”, manager “changed his desk”. 

When he asked the reason for this, manager said “this is your punishment for coming late to the office”. 
I mean, is this school-level micromanagement rampant in your org as well?

Is managers giving “punishments” a thing for real?

I will go first, it doesn't matter if you really work hard on a project, in the end only result matter, no matter how much efforts you made for it
