Any advice for someone looking to make a career switch from a project manager to a producer? I feel the roles and responsibilities can overlap but could be wrong. Would love any feedback!

I’ve had the same interest! I feel like PM and Producer share similar skillsets, but I wonder what the learning curve is to develop the more “event planning” related expertise.

Depends on the company my back ground is in creative ops or marketing pm. I was submitted twice to google & apple as a creative producer it matched my pm experience as far as the job description . Of course the pay was way different because it’s a FAANG role. Also a DM company the title was producer as well.

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.
