What is the background of a l7 product manager at a faang? Levels.fyi around 15 years experience…what’s the best way to position into this?

I imagine actual tech and product work and not just something like MBB or strategy credentials. Curious about L6 as well. I assume manager levels at the strategy shops can probably talk their way into L5 product mgmt but curious what it takes to get those higher level offers?

Levels mean different things at different companies.

It’s product experience at a comparable company to get L7 at the same level or n-1 level at times.

You can get L7 PM Amazon from MBB mgr. but it’s super hard. Can’t get L6 google PM.

Yeah, but probably hinges on a lot factors:
-High YOE total and before MBB
-Higher Tenure at EM
-High relevant experience
-Strong interview performance

So if you’re a BA-EM with 2.5 YOE it’s not happening lol.

L7s at google are pretty up there, I don’t believe I’ve ever met one with under 10 YOE. It’s even rare to find an L6 with under 10 YOE.
