I am currently a Business Analyst and is looking to transition to Product manager roles and i was campus placed in Amazon after completing MBA from NMIMS Mumbai. So how to transition into PM roles and currently I am a L4 BA. I was also thinking to take external ISB PM certification course but it's pretty expensive approx 1.5lakhs for 4 weeks and already I know that in any good company experience has more preference than knowledge. But my problem is not having Pm experience. Any suggestions?
