EVENT DETAILS
If you have a technical background, & want to get a job as a Product Manager - this is the perfect event for you!

Gayle McDowell is the author of the book "Cracking the PM Interview", the #1 interview prep book for aspiring product managers.

During this talk, she will teach you how to prepare for PM interviews, what top companies like Google, Amazon, & Microsoft really look for, & how to tackle the toughest problems. This is not a fluffy be-your-best talk; it is deeply tactical & will discuss how the ambiguously-named "PM" (product manager / program manager) role varies across companies, what experience you need, how to make your existing experience translate, what a great PM resume & cover letter look like, & finally, how to master the PM interview questions (estimation questions, behavioral questions, case questions, product questions, technical questions, & the super important "pitch").

Timeline:
6:30 - 6:45: Meet & Greet with wine & delectables

7:15 - 7:30: Q&A
