Good video. Watched till the end. I am going to read hooked I think. I am new in the PM world and finally feel the hang of it. I particularly liked what you had to say about BA’s. I as a BA focused so much on the financials and moving into the PM role I feel as though I forgot that.

[@aliafuqua7017]

This is really encouraging! I have a Bus Management degree and people have told me it's difficult to get a job in this industry unless I've worked on a few projects and have had experience. Sadly, I don't have any experience in this field and I didn't find an interest in PM until 6 months after I graduated college. Plus I've only had Accounting internships throughout college which doesn't help me with this industry. What are some entry level jobs that can get my foot in the door? Do you think getting a certification in PM would help as well? I would love to join your program to learn more.

[@parkerrex]

Hey Alia Glad you found this video encouraging! First off that's ok - you can always switch what you want to do with a little effort. I made a video on this channel called: How to START in Product Management. I'm working on a Product Management Crash course right now that will get you up and running on all the things you need to know to land a gig in product. It wont be out until mid July as theres a lot of work to make sure it delivers as much value as possible! For now, stick around and follow on here and twitter for updates.

Hey, I am really interested in an APM role in order to get experience in this field as I truly find it interesting and would like to do a career shift. Any recommendations? maybe you would want to re-do the APM for days role ? Thank you for your time and help

[@Thomas-cr2pt]

Possible directions. - Aim for business analyst roles -> not a guaranteed success but best way for moving up - Find an internal product owner/manager role -> there are few and its usually a mix between it project management/tech support/ po-pm - It project manager - It counts as experience Or be lucky and get that apm role. Getting in is the hardest so my personal advise is to search for the right company and wait for a shot. I was an application manager and the company started a DevOps team. Then i managed to get a position there and got my product manager career started
