To start with, you could think about what type of PM profile you're interested in. I hear startups offer a more solid PM experience (massive user base, managing product vision, manage budgets, PnL , track usage and engagement etc.) - this can vary greatly at bigger organizations where focus can be more on "delivery", than product.

YouTube channel called exponent is quite helpful in PM interview prep.

Scrum master certification is not required. Start looking for startups and APM roles.. read books like decode and conquer for preparation

Had an interview for SM role at ACN 3 weeks back but haven’t heard back. This was skills round interview after HR round. Am I still in the game or it’s a no? Don’t want to followup with HR just yet.

Hello Guys,
Need small advice,
I had my LWD on 27th june ,before a week of that i had HSbC last round in which I clearly told I wanted to join by 4th july as my next joining is due at that time.
HR agreed and told will fast track your bgv .
Now the problem is they released offer for 11thJuly saying will preponed in case bgv finished early.
Today I again got a mail for 18th july extension.

Am quite worried here now, as I already said no to other companies !should I try looking again.
