What are some good books/courses/resources to prepare for product manager interviews and in general learning about this skill? I have a cyber security consulting experience and am looking to pivot into a product manager role within the same field. TIA!

Best tip is to go and build cyber security products. Most PM roles want to hear your experience, not just studying for the interview alone
