Those of you who managed to break into a PM role after upto 5 years of non-PM work ex, how did you go about it?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Hi all

I am currently working as a business analyst for about 6 months now. Earlier was in a back end development team but was underperforming as could not really figure out what to do. I don’t like coding. The current role suits me but I don’t know if it has a good future.

Current role - Analyse old product (old code) (understand the complete functionality)
Suggest enhancements if asked for by the client.
Give demos to on-site people/developers
Test the modernised version of the product (started very recently. Called “functional testing”)

Can I switch to a different company with a good jump in pay in future? I feel like the work I do is not really considered worthy and hence there is no growth in this field. 

Please suggest how to move forward. Would like to work for another year or two and then go for an MBA abroad.

Future seems bleak

Hi, I know it’s a much debated topic but I wanted honest views of my fellow grapers/viners/grapeviners. How valuable is an MBA as a PM? What are the trade-offs - MBA vs Non MBA? Does it affect the career 10 years down the line?

About myself: I’ve 3.5 years of work experience as a PM in the BFSI sector. I did my engineering from a tier 1 institute and started my career as a PM. Currently wondering what to do next. The learning experience in the current company has been below par as of today with no signs of improvement. I would like to explore VC, PE but I’m happy with PM too. 

If you are pro MBA, bonus points for suggesting any relevant courses. If against, then please suggest any upskilling resources 🙌🏻

TIA

I've been in this field for about 15 years now and post-covid this field has become a borderline joke and I feel embarrassed about Design in India.

Do not think that Designing involves ONLY a lot of Visual Design work, importance to "craft", motion design etc.

The kind of work you need to do should involve a LOT of user research, planning, testing, domain knowledge, technical knowledge and actual hands on design work.  I don't get to do a lot of it today but back in the day it was all that we were taught by our Design Leads.

Now because of these influencers whenever I tell people that Design is innovative and based in Behavioural Science, they assume that my work is easy, doesn't take much time, I just have to design screens etc and I keep on explaining to them that you're wrong and there's more to it.

Thanks to clown influencers, kids think if they follow these clowns they can get into FAANG or some top tier company.

I'm really scared of the state of Design in India 5 years down the line when these design kiddies become more senior.

I am planning to take the course. After speaking to a few alumni peeps and after finding this thread below, I am keen on joining. Seems decent.

But I also saw few posts that are not helping me encourage to take this forward. Can I get some honest reviews about this? Preferably by someone who has themselves done the program or has talked to such learners closely.

Upraised Honest Reviews?

Any opening/opportunity for APM/PM role but with no experience in the particular role. I have 1.6 years of industry experience and want to switch domains from developer to APM/PM.
Kindly guide or let me know if your organisation is hiring.

Any opening/opportunity for APM/PM role

Hi guys, 
I have between 5-6 years of experience in engineering role (QA/Test automation). However over these years I have found the role to be unfulfilling due to the growth, impact and visibility. 
I have been considering going for a full time executive MBA (In India/Abroad) to switch into a PM/Strategy role. 
Wanted to understand if this is going to be really worth it, considering I will have high chances to start again at an entry level position? Or is this common to do post MBA?

Hi folks,

If a company asks you to do a Product Take home assignment and never replies after it, what is the best way to prevent it ?

Preventing from being exploited in take home assignment

I am a student at IITR now, looking for a PM internship. I love checking new products as a user and looking for the things that could make it more interesting. I am really stuck because I cannot find the opportunities. I check every LinkedIn, Glassdoor, well found openings but their turnout even after mailing and messaging HR is not good. I really want to put my skills out there in the corporate world and learn new things from professionals. I have not done any internship before and every company shortlisting seeks for previous internships. What would you suggest for my scenario on getting my very first PM internship?   
I have this time constraint thing for an onsite internship, I just have 2 months for an onsite intern before my college opens up again. Then after, I can definitely work remotely given the opportunity. I always put in all my hard work when a task is assigned to me.   
Please suggest how I should take things forward?
And also, if you may know of any openings for a product management internship.. please let me know.
