What does a program/project/product manager do? Why does it not seem to matter whether said managers can code?

Cuz it’s not their job to write code. Not sure of the distinctions between the other two, but PdM is different and generally considered a step above career-wise

Product managers are generally closer to the business side. For example, identifying customer needs and features that need to be added or improved

Hi guys,

I submitted my resume in Accenture portal 3 months back and now I got shortlisted for interview.

Are there any chances they might reject me as the interview is for lead role while my YOE fall in senior analyst / analyst role.

Thanks,

Ok. I know that social media has made a lot of AAVE slang popular. I get that. What I find cringe is the obsession with using it 24/7 and the assumption that adding "lit" or "that's cap" or "slay" to things will make them do numbers. Someone in a meeting this morning suggested we use bffr and said it means "best friend for real." Like at least research the term before you try to use it.

What are your thoughts about having to take an iq/personality assessment tests? It seems so outdated to me. I don’t think it predicts how you will truly perform at a job. I took a test like this for a startup once and they were concerned about my ability to speak up or behave in social settings. This was completely false. I present, interview clients, demo products, and facilitate meetings for a living. So what if I go home and shut down after work? I’m exhausted from speaking all day!
