About this session
Want to get into Product Management but don't know where to start?
You can spend months watching PM videos, collecting frameworks and applying to dozens of jobs without getting closer to the role you actually want.
The problem is usually not a lack of effort.
It's a lack of a clear strategy.
I've spent 10 years in Product Management across Amazon, BookMyShow, BlackBuck, EdTech and Deep-Tech. I've built products, led cross-functional teams, owned business outcomes, and personally cracked offers from Amazon, Uber, BookMyShow, KukuFM, BlackBuck and other leading startups and MNCs.
In this session, we'll look at your profile, your goals and the gap between where you are and where you want to be—and work out how to close it.
WHAT WE'LL WORK ON
• Your path into PM
Whether you're coming from Engineering, Analytics, Consulting, Operations, an MBA or another career, we'll identify the most realistic route for you.
• Profile positioning
How to turn your existing experience into a story that makes sense for Product roles.
• Resume & LinkedIn
What to highlight, what to remove, and how to make your profile stronger for the roles you're targeting.
• Skill gaps
What you actually need to learn—and what you can stop wasting time on.
• Job search strategy
Which roles to target, which companies to consider, and how to approach applications more intelligently.
• PM interview preparation
What good PM interviews actually test and how you should prepare for them.
• A practical roadmap
What I would do next if I were in your position.
WHY THIS SESSION?
I've seen Product Management from multiple angles—as a PM, product leader, hiring manager and candidate.
Today, I'm a Senior Product Manager at Amazon, working across Growth, Conversion, GenAI and 0→1 product initiatives.
Before that, I was a Product Lead at BookMyShow, owning product strategy and P&L across Movies, F&B and Ratings & Reviews for 42M MAUs.
I've also built B2B SaaS products at BlackBuck and Vassar Labs, including 0→1 products and enterprise platforms.
I was AIR 1 in the Executive PGP in Product Management at IIM Lucknow and completed my B.Tech from IIT Madras.
You don't need another generic PM roadmap.
You need a plan that makes sense for you.
Bring your profile, your questions and your goals.
We'll figure out the path together.
