Product Management is hot. It seems everyone wants to get into Product Management. As a Product Leader who has helped people train and prepare for interviews in Product, I often get asked how to land the Product Management job of your dreams.

After working with hundreds of people who have successfully gotten their dream job, I believe I understand some of the secrets and habits these people have in common. Product Management doesn’t just require intelligence. It requires skill, hard work, preparation, and the courage to push through any obstacle. Skrappy people and hustlers will always win out over those who are only sailing through life.

Watch the following video of a presentation I gave at ProductCamp Austin 23, September 14th, 2019. In this presentation, I walk them through some of these tricks of the trade that will help you nail that interview and beat out the competition.

The following is where you can find the slides to this presentation.
