Hi guys, I am about to graduate in a month(Btech,NIT-Civil). I am adept(skilled) in data analysis, Product roadmapping, Feature prioritisation, UI/UX etc. I also have a PM internship experience. The problem is I am unable to land any product analyst/  APM full-time roles. Any suggestions, guidance will be of great help.


Thanks guys,

Landing a PM role

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.

I’m a Product Manager for the past 3 yrs and I am looking for a switch. I have approached many HR directly, via LinkedIn and via Email but there are no response or rejection. I have certifications and a lot of experience. What should I write in my resume in the current market that stands out?

What should I definitely add to my PM resume?

Speaking to friends etc in the PM roles, I've developed an interest in the role. And would like to give it a fair shot. Just can't seem to figure out how. Any pointers would be really helpful.

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?

Strategy & Operations

Hi everyone, I'm a B.Tech. graduate in Computer Science with 7+ years of experience in sales and operations leadership, looking to transition into a product management role (PM/APM).

I recently completed a PG certification in Product Management with a specialization in Product Growth, where I honed my skills through projects and assignments. My passion for building and growing products led me to pursue this certification during a career break.

In my previous role (3 years), I spearheaded teams, driving revenue, growth, product adoption, customer satisfaction, and churn reduction.

I'm eager to leverage my experience and newfound knowledge in product management. Any referrals or leads would be greatly appreciated!

Product Management newbie: Sales leader looking to learn!

How does an experienced person break into PM roles. Points to keep in mind while.providing suggestions:
1. 10 yrs exp in Tech Industry- 3 yrs in services and 6 years in product based org as QA.
2. Did MBA( full-time from MDI) and now back into the services industry as a business manager.

Never get shortlisted for product roles, most get shortlisted for consulting roles( which I want to leave 😕)
Any method that this break can happen, or should I stop trying in this lifetime

I want to break into product management. I am an ML engineer with 4 yrs of experience in service based companies. What job roles should I apply to and how should I go on preparing for it?

What PM roles should I apply?

Data Scientist

Hi folks,

I work at a startup (been 2 years now) as a PM. From the last 12 months, my work has mostly revolved around strategy, business intelligence, program/general mgmt. I am now planning to quit and move on. However, I am not sure if I want to continue being a PM, because it's very overwhelming honestly and I actually enjoyed the last 12 months as a generalist. 

Need career advice from fellow PMs whether to pursue program mgmt/strategy/general mgmt/Chief of staff/new initiatives roles or devote 100% of my time to prepare for PM interviews and also try to make up for the last 12 months by doing side projects and maybe even interning under a senior PM 

Some pointers about me:

1. I have 2 YoE in PM. 
2. I have a CS degree from a tier 1/2 college
3. There is no particular reason to quit. Job is chill
