Hi all, today I'm getting bored, so wanted to do something, so I thought of starting a thread where I can answer your questions related to PM, and how you can get into it.
About me, PM with around 3 years of experience.
In-Hand: 30LPA Fixed + some esops (Unlisted company so not sure if it will be worth any penny)
Industry: CCaaS
Technology: AI Agents
What things you can ask: About anything, but interesting ones.
Bonjour,
Je suis diplômée d’un bachelor en communication et marketing mais j’aimerai devenir project manager. Est-il préférable de suivre un mba à distance ou est-ce que la certification CAPM délivrée par le project management institute suffit ? Est-ce qu’il est même reconnu en France ?
Merci !
Hi guys, I have PM experience of close to 4 years. Currently I am looking for new opportunities.
Was curious to know if there is anything like "Freelance Product Manager" ?
If yes, where do you find such opportunities? Is it worth it?
Thoughts?
Hey Everyone, it’s that time of year for recruiting for PM roles. I always feel like breaking into PM is gatekept, so I'm breaking down what has helped me in my career. Here's exactly 5 resources I wish someone told me about when preparing for PM interviews.
Another way to practice is to write down example questions (like the ones you see on Youtube) and pull a random one and record yourself talking and watch yourself back.
Feel free to ask questions, happy to help where I can!
Here's the latest Product Management job market report for August 2026. The market posted a second straight month of growth, though the headline number is stronger than what happened underneath it.
Product Manager jobs worldwide are UP 2.3%, matching July's 2.3% rise, with 25,905 open listings. Volume is up 19% year over year, but still sits 0.2% below the six month average.
🌍 Regional Trends
Growth was thin on the ground this month. EEA led with a 1.7% increase and LATAM edged up 0.4%, while every other market lost ground. Canada fell 9.1%, the United States 2.7%, the Middle East 2.5%, and APAC 1.2%. The United Kingdom was essentially flat at -0.2%. Worth watching: the global figure rose while most individual regions slipped, so this month's gain is narrower than it looks.
👩🏽💼 Leveling Trends
Associate PM listings jumped 20%, the biggest single move at any level, though they remain down 3.4% over two months and roughly flat over six. PM roles grew 3.5% and are up 17% year over year. Senior PM slipped 3.1% after a strong run, but is still up 8.8% over two months and 25% year over year. Leadership roles rose 15% and are up 6.4% over six months, extending the long term strength at the top of the ladder.
👨🏻💻 Work Environment Trends
On-site listings led with 4.6% growth, Hybrid added 3.5%, and Remote fell 3.4%. The longer view tells the real story. Hybrid is up 8.2% over six months and 36% year over year, while Remote is down 7.7% over six months despite a 32% year over year gain. Flexible work is consolidating around Hybrid rather than fully Remote.
More details are available on my site if you'd like to check it out.

I produce this report to help the broader PM community.
I'll continue publishing it as long as people find it valuable.
Hello friends,
I am SWE with 4+ years of experience, 2 of them being at a FAANG company. I am currently unemployed and I am starting to look for jobs. I really want to break into PM and I do not know what the best way to go about it is:
Get another SWE role at a tech company and try to do an internal transfer
Get an MBA and apply for PM internships or PM roles post MBA
Cold apply to early PM roles and hope to get one. Maybe get a PM certificate or two to strengthen my case.
Please help thanks!

Hello I'm in my final year btech and I want to break into product management so what are the ways I can break into it and what things are there that I need to focus on I want some recommendations from people who work in this field
Hi everyone!
I'm looking for my next opportunity and thought I'd take a slightly different route from sending applications into the void.
I've worked across product, operations, category management, marketing operations and analytics, mostly in startup environments. I've found that I enjoy roles where there's an ambiguous problem, multiple stakeholders and someone needs to actually make things happen.
I'm currently exploring Product Management, Program Management, Product/Business Operations, Strategy & Operations, Business Analyst and Founder's Office roles. Bangalore preferred, but open to remote/hybrid and immediate to join.
If you're building something interesting and think my background could be useful, I'd love to hear from you. Happy to share my resume over DM.
I would like to ask how can I make a transition into an AI project manager. I lost my job 2 months ago, i previously worked as a project coordinator in the supply chain space and passed my PMP exam 3 months ago. Looking for jobs in the supply chain space seems difficult and I would like to transition into working as an AI program Manager or AI Project Manager. What tips can you guys give to help me make the move. For more context I live in Europe.
