Break Into Product Management with Uditi Sharma

Moving into product management from engineering, operations, consulting, design, or marketing is possible, but most people go about it in the wrong order. They apply broadly, get filtered out, and conclude they lack the experience. Usually the experience is there and the positioning is off.

In this call we look at your background and work out how to present it as product experience, which PM roles are realistic first, and what to close before you apply. I have 10+ years in product management and have led product, product marketing, and go-to-market teams, so I have sat on the hiring side of these decisions.

What you get:

• A read on how your current experience translates to PM, and where the gaps are
• Which PM roles to target first (associate, technical, product ops, or an internal move) and which to skip for now
• How to reposition your resume and LinkedIn story so a recruiter sees a PM candidate
• A plan for closing the biggest gap, whether that is a project, a portfolio piece, or an internal step
• A 30-day action list, sent to you in writing within 24 hours of the call
• One follow-up question by message within 7 days

Best for:

Engineers, analysts, consultants, designers, marketers, and operations people who want to move into PM. Also useful if you are already in a junior product role and want to move up.

Come prepared with:

Your current resume or LinkedIn link, the type of company you want to work in, and your two or three biggest doubts about making the move.
