Tier 1 MBA Product Role

I am a Tier 1 MBA with 3.5 years of tech work-ex in service based company. Will be graduating in mar’23. The on-campus hiring for Product roles is pretty bad right now. How do I land an off campus product role at a decent company with decent pay

You’ll have to start with APM role. Write to hiring manager, a cold mail works. Only problem is there are too many folks using this playbook.

Not just mbas. Most of the folks who’ve taken shitty courses from growthx, upraised, nextleap, product school are using it

Make a list of all your alumni working in product companies that you want to join. Start emailing and reach out to them for a referral.

Help your placement teams reach out to more companies - give them a list of companies that they don’t really focus on, and hand them an alumni’s contact from those firms.

Do not wait hoping you’ll get a firm visiting you. Take action.
