Product Managers at Google are usually ex-SWEs — we can be that picky.

Used to be the profile was CS undergrad, then MBA.

Ex consultants will probably be more at home on the TPgM ladder at Google these days

My SO is a PM at Google, here's his take:
1. Consulting is a nice to have, but you'll have to pass a rigorous technical interview and prove credibility with engineers to even make it to hiring committee for a Product Management role.
2. Majority of opportunities for non-tech consultants are Strategy and Operations, finance, sales operations and business operations (aka BizOps). None of these are considered core parts of the business, but are not bad places to start in tech post consulting or MBA.
3. 1 & 2 seem to apply at Facebook and a few other places, but Amazon and others are much more open to hiring non technical PMs

My fiancé will NOT stop talking about her ex. After I found out they were texting arguing she justified it by saying it was about the dogs and not them. Even though Her social media is full of his pics. She still sends him $50 a month for dog food, still goes to work right by his place and suspiciously needs keys. I try to bring it up and I get dismantled for being too mean and making “false accusations.” How much more obvious can it be?
