I have a PM interview coming up with the CPO and have no idea what to expect. I have passed the recruiter screen. Any tips on how to prepare?

Background: was a data analyst (recently laid off) and trying to transition into PM.

Thanks!

Here are a couple of sources I found- https://www.reddit.com/r/ProductManagement/comments/phyquh/interview_with_cpo_what_questions_should_i_ask/?rdt=36819 and https://medium.com/@d.everett/product-manager-interview-questions-and-preparation-29b3e9a879d3 . Think there is some good information there that even if it doesn’t perfectly fit, can still use it in some way. Happy interviewing, sounds like a great opportunity!
