API PMs, what’s unique about working on API products?

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:
1. Can my company withdraw or cancel my clearance if I leave right after I secure a TS?
2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!

Welcome to the bowl

What welcome kit they will send?

Hello guys, you can join this bowl for anything related to Celonis and process mining.

I have been applying for internships the last few months. Got few first round interviews but never concluded further in the application stage. Lots of rejections because I am not from a target university.

Still looking for a summer internship within a Quant Fund, Hedge Fund or Trading firm (HFT,Quant or Systematic). Anyone with tips?

Bit of background. I am a Physics and Math undergrad with previous experience in Capital Markets and Research.

Thanks in advance!

Is it important to tell recruiters your end goal when first reaching out? For example, I’m interested in switching from litigation to transactional, but my eventual goal is to go in house. Is that important to mention or precarious? Would recruiters have insight into the best way to make that goal happen?

(I’m not really sure since I’m a first generation lawyer) I know clerking is generally considered a great opportunity and learning experience and prestigious (?) Is it also the case working for a Senator?

Started at firm in second week of March and am at 1,700 right now, on pace for 2,000+. M&A 7th year. Who else is this busy? Keep reading M&A down across the board, but not feeling it here…

Obviously love the job security, but am at lockstep bonus firm and pretty sure at this point bonus will be on base scale last year, so kinda bummed about that.

Only barely worked for 2 months, but starting to soak up some realities that makes me wonder "are all firms a little like this"?

One partner drinks alcohol nearly every day in his office

One senior associate unashamedly talks about his coke habit ("come on, at least a third of V100 lawyers do coke regularly, but they don’t admit it like I do")

Several partners claim that their kids can do anything they want.. EXCEPT choose big law and their parents’ lives.

Should I stay or should I go? 😯

Every 4th person in my feed on LinkedIn is now an astro expert and posting facts from Wikipedia on James Webb image of stars and galaxies.

One even baked pancakes for his kids to celebrate it.

Where do general management consultants exit to ? I feel I don’t have any substantial skills. I am a jack of all trades (a good one, but still).

I see quite a few positions hiring APM pretty far from now, for example for Sep 2023. Is that a normal practice? (Not an APM program or anything, just APM or PM position).
I would like to apply to one of those but I feel like it’s a bit strange to get an offer that is a year from now…

Anyone use air table for PM? Looking for pros and cons. Thanks in advance!

I am Product Owner, and have an opportunity to change my Title to "Product Manager". The actual work I'm doing will not change significantly, it's just a Title change, since I've been working less and less with the scrum teams and doing more product analysis over the last year. My main goal with this is to ensure this looks good on my CV. My thought is a Product Manager role seems more senior to a product owner. Any thoughts on this and any advice on how to approach this? I'm based in London.

I am interviewing @ Stripe for PM role and they have a written assignment. Do any of you insiders have any tips to share?? I have heard they use Basecamp's shaping method. Are there any examples of what they expect? Appreciate your help!

Hey, any Meta PgMs from Product & Service Operation team? I wanted to ask few questions that can help me prepare. You can DM me also. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!

I'm working at a startup where I feel like I've spent as much time trying to deal with product issues vs working on roadmap items. I get this is bound to happen in a start up but is this common? I'm not sure what to do. It seems like no one really thought about the architecture or ux as much as they should have in my opinion. I need some advice.

What’s a decent amount of stock options when joining a series B startup probs about 3-5 years from exit? Salary is £75k shares expected to sell for £3-4 a share

Do you have a product portfolio? I have case study details on features I've released but so far have only needed as reference notes in interviews. I have an upcoming interview where they specifically want to discuss my portfolio and want to ensure I'm correctly prepared.

I’ve been promoted with a title but not the responsibilities. I’m job searching and am primarily looking at postings that don’t include my promoted title — I’m not sure how to professionally articulate in an interview why I would be willing to take a “step down”. As I see it, I’m looking for a lateral move because I don’t actual have experience as a true “senior”.

Hi! I've worked as PM/Sr BA/PO in the past, have 5 yoe. Then was called for military active orders for one year, and now trying to get back into the civilian world. I'm looking for product management jobs in Irvine, CA or remote!

I have a product manager interview with PwC next week and was wondering if anyone had any tips? I heard the interviews at Consulting firms are a bit different. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Hello! I see a ton of questions in here about interviewing and getting hired as a PM. I also know that it’s really hard as a manager to hire a great team. I’m the head of product at a growing startup, and just hired two PMs in 3 months. One a career switcher who’d never been a PM before, and one a seasoned principal PM. Whether you are someone who’s interviewing or someone who’s hiring right now, ask me anything!

Hi All! Has anyone heard of a company called Stash? They are a series G funded Startup with $425 million totally funding. The role is for product management and base is 140k with a 5% EOY bonus. I really am not sure how i feel about it and was wondering if anyone had heard of it / knows about it and can give me their opinion? I have 3 YOE as a Product Manager

Wondering potential exit ops for a PM in financial services. Fintech seems like a clear path, but wondering if I’d be a contender for FAANG-like companies as well?

Looking for a new opportunity. 3 YOE as a PM 1 YOE in front end development at a large VMS B2B software company with measured results. Very interested in FAANG or other big tech anyone willing to connect or refer?

A colleague told me today that Google separates Product Manager and Product Owner as two separate roles. I believe that one PM role is preferred in the industry and most modern software companies, especially FAANG companies, only have PMs. Just curious what others have experienced and if I'm correct in my assumption.

Anyone here a Data Product Manager who wouldn’t mind having a quick chat about practices within this area of the business?

It's my first month in a new job as Product Owner. I went from a company that digital product development was their secondary focus along with consultancy services, to a company that their only focus is the product. The difference in scale as well as the different domain, certainly feeds into my imposter syndrome. What are the things I should focus to achieve within my first few months at the new job?

I'm being asked to be involved in product pricing for the first time, and lack any knowledge or experience in that area. Any suggestions on courses or books or websites? I'm considering the Pragmatic Marketing pricing course, so would be interested to hear from anyone who has taken it.
