Career In Product Management
summary
Concrete steps to get a first PM job: start by asking the five whys, use LinkedIn and Amazon reviews to audit product faults, and prove competence by building a product (web or app or simple hardware). Expect a three-step hiring loop: phone screen → onsite → hiring review. Break the experience Catch‑22 with mentorship, small prototypes (one example raised 60,000 Kickstarter backers), and cheap ops like Amazon Mechanical Turk for transcription. Use power‑pose and polished stories to handle behavioral and conflict questions.
