I've been giving multiple interviews and somehow I always get rejected in the final round where it's usually between me and another candidate. I have a feeling it's the questions about "why" that I'm not answering really well. For example why product marketing? Why company? X and what is my long-term career plan? I'm looking for some help and guidance on how to answer these type of questions while being truthful but knowing that I really don't know what I want to do long-term.

In the last interview I thought I gave a pretty good answer about why company x and why product marketing, but the interviewer who is a VP told me that you can get that at any other company and in any other role. So I'm looking for tips on how to personalize and make the answer less generic.

Why are PMM positions paying so low? Whenever I look at job postings from companies - I look at sales roles, sales enablement roles and PM roles and the pay is way higher compared to PMM roles.

I feel like we do equally strategic work and work hard too. Why do we see a low pay?

Looking for advice on an exit strategy from my current situation. Joined PMM after a couple years in digital sales and stuck here with no career growth. Comp dropped by 50%, manager and team are mid at best. Looking to change my current situation and open to ideas.

Option A - jump ship to another company and get a 20% hike. Challenge: not enough PMM experience overall and failing interviews at final stage

Option B - switch laterally to different career such as sales enablement..
