Is it good to join in hitachi for java 6 years senior product engineer?

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

It seems like we’ve had many people join from firms today. In the in-house bowl we had a lot of people speaking about F50 who don’t actually work there and the info/advice was often not accurate. If you’re not at an F50 feel free to ask questions but please refrain from commenting on things you don’t have first hand knowledge of so we can avoid the misinformation issues and make this bowl helpful for all

Anyone down to play tennis in Frisco/Plano?

Social media is changing, from IG going to video and Twitter….well. It has become clear how important focusing on multiple social media channels can be.

Which one would you pick?

Big name shop. Shitty account, but you get opportunities beyond that.

Shop with bad reputation that lacks PR and hardly enters awards but has a lot of book-worthy projects.

Hello!
I’ve been working as a RPA developer for 4 years. I joined a program that trained me in this role as a opportunity to start a career when my initial plan fell through.

I want to transition to a tech Product Owner/Manager role. Any advice on how to transition ?

Would you consider hello fresh as a tech company? Trying to break into tech and wondering if a position at hello fresh can get me there if it’s more of a product role?

Does anyone recommend doing any courses or degrees on product management? I am a functional consultant and I don’t have experience in PM. However I know I don’t want to stay in consulting in the long run given the long hours, and how sales play a big role
Anyone who switched to Product management please recommend some good resources, pros and cons. TIA 🙏

I have an interview for a sr assoc PM role at Cap1. What are some things I should expect and how should I prepare?

Looking to get into PM. Where do I start ? Is my first step the cert ?

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. Since most of these are B2B products, delivery would include a phased-production rollout to those customers, based on their roles, locations etc. I have developed both software and data products in the healthcare and social

All of my experience is in supply chain (inventory management). I am looking into pivoting into project management. I have zero experience. What types of roles should I be looking for? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm going to have a final interview with the Director of Product in a startup for an Associate Product Manager role, what do you guys think are the questions that they will be asking me?

Thanks in advance!

Thank you for creating this bowl! I’m very new to the PM role as I’m trying to transition from management consulting. Just finished all rounds of interviews at Google yesterday for a PM role and not feeling very confident. Hopefully I hear something back in a week or so.

Hi all! I have a data science/financial modelling background and looking to get into PM. Trying to map out a path as I don’t have much product experience. Would it make sense to transition into a product analytics data science role first and then to PM?

Hey y’all! Former consultant who is getting off a <1 year career break due to health. Has anyone pivoted to Product marketing from consulting?

If your engineering manager tells you that his team cannot pick up an item from your roadmap because of a lack of capacity or required skill set (different language) what should you as a product manager do?

UK Only please.

Digital Consultant to Tech Company (e.g. FAANG PM, Palantir Deployment, Databricks Solution Architect). What would you use to determine your total comp package?

At the moment, I just take the average TC i'd expect over the next 3 years at my consulting firm (EM levels)

I am considering pivoting to product management. My background is in engineering and I manage engineering teams. Would I be able to clear 150k?

Thanks for creating this Bowl. Anyone here transitioned from cost engineering into PM? I’m working a internal consulting type of cost engineer role and is seems like a good position to gain skills in that could apply to becoming a PM in the future. I have also worked in design engineering and engineering analysis roles. Have a BS in mechanical engineering and a MS in Data Analytics Engineering.

So I recently interviewed for an associate PM role with my current company. I’ve been a store manager with them for 11 years. During the interviews, I felt like things were growing great and the feedback I got at the end was great. You’d think given my time knowing the product/ company for so long, that I’d be a great fit but I got rejected and haven’t gotten feedback probably will get ghosted. Should I shoot my shot and advocate for myself with the hiring manager either way?
