What this book is written for:
')
Product management should not be the privilege of the elect, whose luck (and communication) allows you to gain knowledge about the tricks of the profession. Openness
product management is equally beneficial to both job seekers and employers. When looking for a product manager, you can better present yourself if you know what to expect from the interview. It's not about cheating; you can really gain the required experience if you are convinced that it is necessary. When the time comes for interviews, you will be better prepared to answer the employer's questions. You will learn how to describe your unique experience and key achievements, to solve the tasks offered to you. You will learn what it means to focus on users, as well as improve your technical skills. Employers, in turn, will get more qualified applicants. Calm and well-trained candidates use their skills as efficiently as possible. They understand what their achievements are most interesting and relevant for the employer, and concentrate on them during the conversation. Applicants demonstrate their ability to solve problems when they understand the meaning of the questions they are asked. They can get the knowledge they need to solve
certain tasks. Such training more accurately represents the skills of the applicant from the perspective of his future work.
An interview, in which there are no random and guessed answers, is beneficial to all of its participants.
