What’s the best way to apply for another job internally? I have a good relationship with my manager. Should I let her know I’m thinking of applying to jobs internally or apply first and then let her know? I’m up for promotion so I’m not sure if letting her know ahead of time might take me off the promotion track.

I’d tread carefully.

Maybe focus on the reasons you are considering a transfer, but don’t discuss outright while promotion conversations are happening

Depends on your goals, but if you really want to do it communicate that with your manager. Do you have a sponsor in this new group?

Two risks of moving roles...

1) Might not be able to change internally once promoted.
2) Will be difficult to be promoted if you switch, usually takes a year to do it.

I like to apply for Product Manager roles at Amazon since I like the role. I have done front office CRM (SAP) implementations for Fortune50 clients through Accenture.
It is more of sitting with users to understand their process and map it to CRM suite and build additional features to map their specific processes.
I have also worked on sales, BD and functional spec creation for new features.
Can I count these as Product Management experience while applying for Amazon or other Faangmula?

I recently interviewed for a small strat consulting company (energy industry). I have 3 YoE and would be moving from engineering. the HR person asked me what my salary expectations were I was caught offguard and said I would expect it to be at least what I make now (around 100k). Im now worried theyll lowball me because I really shouldve asked for 120+bonus (I think this is market rate?) But they have salary bands they follow right?So if they pay consultants 140 usually would they offer me 100k?
