I am a Master’s Student who landed up with a Product Management internship. I am enjoying it and have done tasks that I thought were not my cup of tea. I want to continue with this role in future and would love to know experiences of other PMs. Also, any suggestions on how to prepare for PM full time opportunities?

Experience on your resume is half the battle, and you're achieving that right now. Don't have personal experience as a PM but have come into contact with a lot of them, especially in the beginning the more work you can get under your belt the better.

Agree I think it's just gettign experience overall that helps. Look at job postings for dream roles and see how you can develop those skills in your current role

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline? How do you feel about you are not progressing anymore and seeing other people progressing in their career? I have no intention to make partner, but still feel a bit stuck not doing that much.

Fast forward I noticed that I was eventually handed everyone’s workload (AR & imports & duty and check coworker work + AP) Spoke to them about pay increase based on workload. So they raised it to 55k.. but I still feel underpaid based on the amt of work I do. I don’t know what my title or what to put on resume..
