I have been in Product Management even before the term Product Management was so prevalent. I have initiated ideas for new products to align with company strategy and goals, designed and managed the development of the products, and enabled delivery of product to the market.

Thanks for creating this Bowl. Anyone here transitioned from cost engineering into PM?

So I recently interviewed for an associate PM role with my current company. I’ve been a store manager with them for 11 years.

Should I shoot my shot and advocate for myself with the hiring manager either way?
