What deliverables and expectations make a product manager a product manager? I feel like the title has been thrown around so much lately by companies.

It has been. I think financial companies are the worst culprits at this. They do it to try and attract tech talent and end up hiring folks who think they're getting something they aren't.

Product managers are responsible for the strategy, development, and launch of a product. They identify market needs, define the product roadmap, prioritize features, and work cross-functionally to ensure the product meets business objectives and customer needs.
So if they don't do this, they aren't really one.

I think that really depends on the company but I would definitely agree that you have to read a lot more into the details if you're looking at positions.

As a product manager, I believe that the main deliverables are to understand the customer, define the product strategy, and ultimately deliver the product. Expectations include being able to work collaboratively with the engineering, design, and marketing teams to ensure the product meets customer needs. I have personally seen the title of product manager thrown around a lot in the last few years, but I think it is becoming an increasingly important role as companies look for ways to better understand and serve their customers.

Honestly, a lot of things, but I discovered that rigorous prioritization, not only for the product but also for your time, is essential.

A good project manager will not operate in isolation and will strive to deliver the best results possible. They will include people early in the process and continue to clear up confusions as they strive to develop the greatest product possible.

I applied for a job within my unit that I do not qualify for. Now, I have an interview for this job. Me knowing I do not meet most of the qualifications for this position has my imposter syndrome thinking I shouldn’t even do this interview because it would be a waste of time. Has anyone felt this way?

Need some advice! I live in Boise which is supposedly the most overvalued real estate market in the country right now. Bought my first home 2 years ago for 400k and it's now worth ~725k. Looking at homes in other western cities everywhere seems incredibly overpriced as well.

I plan to use the proceeds to pay off student loans and save the additional for a large down payment. Is it best to try and race interest rates and find a home or just sit on the big lump of cash and rent for a year?
