Hi Folks,
Good Evening
Hope you all are doing well.
I am just done with the HR and Salary discussion for the Data Engineering role with Telstra .
Which location is good to join Bengaluru, Hyderabad or Pune when it comes to Data Engineering roles and opportunities in Telstra ?
Any one currently working or worked in Telstra looking forward to your valuable inputs and suggestions.
Any Jr. Project Manager openings?

No. Honestly the best way to get into PM is just experience. If there’s any way for you to do PM work or similar duties in your current role that’s the best. You can certainly take a PM courses to learn what that means and help you build those skills, but companies don’t usually care so much about those things as they do your experience.
Similar to the comment above, I don’t think a course means much to companies.
You could aim for associate product manager role if a company is looking for one. Or you could look to start in a different role in a tech company like customer support/success and look to transition to a product role

I second that experience helps you way more than any other courses.
Depending on how product management is implemented at your company, a course may help you at least learn the terminology. However, absent any direct experience, you will need to have the most important soft skills: asking thoughtful questions, willingness to help others solve their problems, good writing skills (proper grammar, vocabulary, and structure), presentations to large groups, and preparing proposals to convince someone to green light a project. Also important is your understanding of how your company builds products. You don't have to be a PM to learn that. Offer a PM or an engineer lunch and in one hour you should know the big things.
