Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Hey folks

So im looking out for a switch. I have overall 2.5yrs of experience with 1.3 yrs in product.

Im looking for APM roles preferably in Delhi/Gurgaon location, but open to pune, bangalore as well.

Im facing a lot of micromanagement at my current firm from the founder(since he heads product & tech) & i dont have ownership in my role. Even the director of PM shares the same frustration.

I feel like after a year of working here i wont have much to show in my cv in core product work. 

Just to give an example: i started an initiative to call customers for general feedback(satisfaction, whether they actually want what we are doing) & i was told to shut it down & work on things which doesnt have any customer validation.

If there are any opportunities available, kindly reach out. Any help would be appreciated.

TIA🙂

Where can I find startups that are hiring for APM/PM roles with 1.5 years experience in SDE? Or is there someone who can refer?

APM/PM roles

Anyone hiring APM's at the moment? I applied to urban company & even though I meet most of the requirements I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna get shortlisted because of my college brand.

I applied to Phonepe, spinny, MPL as well but i think the result will be the same due to above reason.

Any other firms hiring APM's that you know of? Any help would be appreciated🙂

Thanks

APM Opportunities

Hello folks,

I have total 2.5 yrs experience & 1.4 yrs of experience in product where I have-
1. worked on very early-stage startups(e-commerce, fulfillment)
2. collaborated with multiple teams
3. managed product life cycle
4. helped in creating good user experiences

With the current competition in the job market, im having a difficult time finding one. 

Im not at all happy at my current job. There is no sense of respect & recognition whatsoever. I feel like im stuck between multiple excel sheets. There is no core product work happening.

If my profile seems suitable for an APM opportunity, kindly reach out.

Current location- gurgaon
Notice- 15 days

Would really appreciate the help.

Hiring for APMs/PMs

Context- I recently joined X a week ago and I got a offer from Y today. I interviewed with Y a few days before joining X and told them that I will need a answer fast but they didn’t get back to me on time. They called me last week to tell me that they would like to move forward with me and rolled out an offer today. Should I leave my current company as they Y has come up with a better offer and APM role, whereas X has a lower offer (not too big of a difference) and Senior Product Analyst role. This is my first full time job, so I am confused on what to do and what could be the consequences

Received another offer after joining a company a week ago

I know Grapevine is full of young and ambitious people that either planning to get into Product or are already working as a PM. I don’t aim to discourage any of you. Moreover, if you need tips to break into Product I would be happy to help you.

I personally feel that knowing what you are doing is going to doom is better than normalizing it.

So I will convey my experience in simple words, how I hated every single day of it, why did I still stick around for 4 years, why product decisions are random political bullshit, why you should not let anything that happens get under your skin and affect your morale. Finally, few words for sociopathic Head of Products.

Lesson #1: Go through all stages of grief at once. Accept that product culture is broken and accept that it will not get better. Finally, you can’t fix it or improve it.

Lesson #2: Ratings are political bullshit. 
I can tell you the years I was rated worse I was probably working harder and better at my job. It just depends on the results you get in the last month before ratings and whether your DOP is vocal for you.

Lesson #3: Last piece of advice: do not let your Product years lower your self esteem or sense of self worth.

Also, some words for sociopathic Head of Products. F’ you.

You Must Get Out - My Experience of 4 Years In Product

Heavily second this. I’m a tech focus generalist who stumbled upon PMing after multiple startup exits. Absolutely bonkers role with no role definition, metric ownership, impact driving. Anyone who disagrees, is lying to themselves. What I can define PM in Indian / many valley based companies with Indian founders -> glorified bhains charane wala.

Any leads for PM intern or APM jobs , would be appreciated.

Anyone hiring for an APM role

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.

Software Developer

I've been working as an APM at a startup for about 6 months. I kinda fell into the role. Was a developer previously for about a year. So in total about 2 years of industry experience. As an APM, I've not gotten a lot of opportunities to work on hands on PM stuff. My line manager isn't a great mentor and despite having conversations with him to give me more product related tasks, my situation has not improved. 

What should I do? Will I be able to land another APM or a PM job elsewhere?

Need advice for APM.
