Hi, how are people finding the Product Management job hunt at present? Any tips on where to look for jobs, and/or update resumes? Do you know any companies hiring?

What your job search looks like is really dependent on a variety of factors—your experience level, if you currently have a job or not, if there are certain industries or company types you want to target, etc. These can all affect how “successful” your job search feels.

From a general standpoint, the highest impact change I made is updating my LinkedIn profile so that it is optimized to attract recruiters from the industries where you are trying to land a job. Not to be that annoying AI guy, but AI is a cheat code here. If you’re familiar with Claude Code or other similar AI tools, use it to analyze your LinkedIn data and generate a report with highest impact changes you can make on your LinkedIn profile based on your goals (you can download your LI data from your profile settings). You can also download the Claude browser extension and have it manually go through your LI page if you don’t want to wait for the data export.

This took me from getting 0 recruiters reaching out to me ever to getting 2-3 reaching out to me every week to schedule interviews.

I also used Claude to build an automated job search pipeline. I’m specifically interested in Series B-D funded growth stage startups so it scrapes VC fund portfolio sites and other startup-focused job sites then updates a spreadsheet with roles that are a good fit for what I’m looking for. I think Nate Herk has a video on YouTube about how to set up this type of automated pipeline.

So if I’m drafting a summary judgment I could search the service and find a similar one. If this doesn’t exist.. I think I found the next million dollar idea lol

Would folks be open to participating in a “PM Office Hours” style discussion?

Flexible on format etc; here’s what I’m thinking:

- we have a “Fishbowl Live event” where we (practicing PMs) can discuss what we have seen work / not work/ brainstorm solutions for someone with a specific problem.

The idea is to provide multiple peer perspectives, and hopefully something useful
