Here are some things I look for when hiring PM. If they sound relevant, apply these with examples to your resume.
- ability to partner with and drive consensus amongst cross functional teams
- ability to drive work forward, delegate and create clarity / tasks to get the work done
- detail oriented, keeper of all information
- PMs usually manage against margin, so if you could talk to margin or other financial KPIs

That’s probably missing a lot but hopefully that’s a decent start. I think you could make this transition for sure!

Hi Everyone! I’ve been in direct sales and B2C companies for the last 15 years, selling software and supplements. Post pandemic I’ve grown tired of sales. I’ve been craving change but I’m at a loss on where my skills would valuable. The last decade I’ve been fortunate enough to move into management, mentoring sales/account managers. I’ve been moved a few times to turn around underperforming customer service and sales teams and it’s become a unique skill. Could I lean on some of you for advice?🙂
