Have applied for a position at a startup for PM internship. Have no prior experience. Somehow if I get a call for interview, just want to make sure I don't make a fool of myself. If you could please help me outline what things to know before sitting for such an interview? Experienced PMs based on India, do you know da way? Show me da way :)
What if I dunno much about the specific product the interviewer asks about? What to do in such cases?
Very valid concern and something even experienced candidates have to deal with. At initial stages of your career, you need to study the most popular products in an academic sense.
As an example, I wasn't an Instagram user and had a low opinion about the content of the app. But I realised that was costing me a successful interview. So I studied how it works, what are the features, what are the competitors features. What works differently for Instagram vs Sharechat. Why are the user based different.
At senior levels, the questions move more towards strategy and behaviour.
