Thoughts on when applying for a product manager role and then the recruiter tells you they truly want to bring in someone who has product experience and so they flip your process to customer success manager? The CSM at this company makes 17% less than what my current base is..I really like the company, product and idea of stock options but taking that much of a pay cut doesn’t seem worth it to me. Any thoughts appreciated

I’m currently a few interviews in for a position within industry where I would be working as an associate product manager. Before the last interview, they are asking I send over work related to recent projects (I.e. project plan and schedule, status reports I’ve created for clients, and a slide deck I’ve done for a client). I would obviously scrub any client data/names, but I guess I was wondering if this is a normal request? I feel a little uneasy sending it over even after scrubbing it.

So it’s been 6 months of unsuccessfully being able to pivot externally to Product Manager.

c) Comp trajectory
