Transitioning from a non-PM related or a tech role to an Associate Product Manager (APM) position can seem daunting. Especially when you’re coming from a background that doesn’t directly align with product management. The key challenge here is to craft a resume that highlights your transferable skills and aligns them with an APM's core responsibilities. Your resume needs to bridge the gap between your previous roles and the skills required for a successful career in product management. #AssociateProductManager #APM #ResumeTips #CareerTransition #NonTechToTech #ProductManagement #TransferableSkills #ResumeBuilding #ProductManagementCareer #CareerAdvice #JobSearchTips #PMJourney #LinkedInTips #TwiceTheImpactPM #Newsletter

People overcomplicate Product Management Listen, if you’re a APM/PM with 0-2 years of experience : Avoid: - Jumping to solutions based on gut - Shipping features blindly - Taking incharge of making product roadmaps - Only attending meetings all day Instead: - Figure out the problems users are facing - Use data for making decisions - Staying updated with slightest of changes in your product Focus on this for the first 6 months. Build from there. #productmanagers #carrer #jobs #path #experience

Valerie Fletcher from Optum just posted for a Senior Technical Product Manager opening on their team. I am going to start posting less product manager roles on LinkedIn and start moving these posts over to Skool and this is because I am getting blown up by hiring managers telling me to stop posting jobs they are posting on LinkedIn. This didn’t make any sense to me until I started speaking with more hiring managers about how their inbox is blown up with just horrible messages. My mission is to help as many aspiring and experience product managers land their next product manager role, but y’all have to help me out by sending better messages. Sending a generic, “I am interested” or “I applied” or “did you get my application” offers no value and it won’t help you land your next product manager job. If anything it’s only leaving a negative or at best forgettable impression to somebody who just might be your future boss. So do yourself a favor and steal my message templates in Skool, follow up, and have real conversations with hiring managers. The biggest mistakes product managers are making beyond sending out bad messages is not following up. There is reason why we have included 8 follow up slots on the Airtable and that because you NEED to follow up with your applications. You already spent the time applying so you might as well maximize your list until you get a definitive rejection, because you are only one application and one interview away from landing your next product manager role. PS Stop overlooking the smaller companies and apply to them. Seriously! I usually get 3,000 to 6,000+ impressions when I post a product manager job for a bigger company; but I only get 900 impressions when I post for roles at companies nobody has heard of. There is nothing wrong with those companies and I challenge you to interview with them. God knows you need the practice. If you want other people to give you a shot, then you need to give companies a shot too. You want hiring teams to start treating you like a like human instead of a number, then stop applying and interview for product managers like they are another number. Your vibe attracts your tribe. #ProductManagement  #WhatBadEconomy #GameHasBeenElevated #EverybodyIsOutOnTheTake
