Landed a job interview requiring 8-12 years of experience?

Applied for the M level and received an upleveling to SM. How do I nail the interview? It would mean going from IC (i’m in tech) to people leader in consulting PE Tech DD.

Any tips?

Assuming you have led /managed projects, you have also managed people. So while you might be an IC, you can highlight how you have lead projects with X number of team members, their roles and how you coached them on several aspects , including career.

Weak point would be if the role requires officially doing reviews for direct reports, comp determinations, promos , hiring and so on. But they are interviewing you, so they must have already factored that. Just be confident about your people management skills, and have solid examples from your experience.

Got it, yeah i’m going from IC Product Manager to this role so it’ll be an adjustment. I’ve had apprentices I’ve mentored/managed by influence.
