It's tough to do. The certs help, CSM and CSPO. Try going for a product owner role, or junior product manager role. In an enterprise, a product manager is in charge of 3-5 product owners so a PO would be better to start off with or a junior product manager role.

So I boomeranged back to PwC after 2 years away and 2 layoffs. I took a role that I knew would be a soft landing and allow me to rebuild confidence even if it wasn’t my long term ambition. Successfully rebuilt confidence and was promoted to SM within a year. But now I’m not being challenged and have that ‘grass is greener’ feeling. I feel like a hard internal pivot is going to piss people off as much as if I left to a competitor. How do I play this ?
