Very informative. I’ll be joining Duke’s MEM program this fall. I’m planning to venture into PM as well!

[@CareerSchool]

Good luck!! Glad this was helpful!!

[@richardiporter]

[@CareerSchool]

Thank you Richard!

[@fedoanuja]

5am for work?! Sorry. I would spend my morning working out so that I am fresh in the morning. Never slogging like this. Her voice is so nice to hear though 😌

[@CareerSchool]

Thanks for the comment! It is definitely not an everyday thing!

[@onlysonal1]

thank you for the comment!

That was a good interview with Ms. Sridevi. She was humble and clear in answering. We generally hear that speak to your user regularly and she said that's what she is doing regularly to understand and get feedback from them. Good one overall

[@CareerSchool]

Thanks for the encouraging note!

When you say Doc Writing, can you provide examples of the types of documents you create?

[@CareerSchool]

there are so many doc types that we write here as we do not use powerpoint.

[@omprakashmishra4566]

Good morning mam. Am a agricultural engineering student. Can I apply for PM in Amazon? I have also some technical knowledge and I didn't do my MBA. Hope for your reply.

[@CareerSchool]

thank you for the comment. I would say that it is more realistic to start with something that is not a PM and move to a PM role within the company.

[@omprakashmishra4566]

I also involved in a startup. So I want/need it. So can you plz help me. Waiting for your reply.

[@prerna87678]

Is having an MBA degree necessary to qualify for Product Management role. Is it possible to get shortlisted for interview with 4 yrs of experience as Analyst. Please let me know.

[@CareerSchool]

It is definitely not impossible. But I would always recommend you look into roles that more closely relates to your current skill/experience. you can always switch roles after joining. I would recommend checking this video out where Diane switches role from Liberty Mutual Business Analyst --> Amazon BIE --> Amazon Product Manager. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaG6qGSHg8aLiKs

How come I don’t see or find her on LinkedIn ???

[@CareerSchool]

I can find her.. have you searched her with her full name?

[@rdse2552]

Feel genuine over dramatic interviews 😉

[@CareerSchool]

Thanks!

[@pahadisongs4433]

Hey, just wondering which specialization did she take doing MBA?

[@CareerSchool]

i think she did ops. :)

[@vladx3539]

didn’t you just started reciting your cv

[@CareerSchool]

thank you for the comment!

[@chan90s]

Did he say 'achha' 😂 He must be working with Indian team

[@podangadubukus]

Typical day is a 14 hour work day but great work life balance .....😂

[@CareerSchool]

it really depends on which team....

[@podangadubukus]

@@CareerSchool I get that , when asked about a typical work day she walked through a 14 hour work day but she also said great work life balance which is contradictory

[@erabhikdasgupta]

Not always a 14 hour workday. Mostly I hardly have even 8 hours of work. Only during grooming sessions, writing product backlogs is what is time consuming. Rest times its most analysis of gathered data. 14 hours time is mostly interactions with enginnering team, clients, stakeholders, which is more of keeping everyone in loop and ensuring all are at sync, motivated to deliver best performances.

[@danekwunife4893]

@@erabhikdasgupta Nice one, Abhik. Do you work in Amazon?

[@aaronwilson8624]

Interview. One tip, be quiet when interviewee is talking.

[@CareerSchool]

Thanks for the comment!

[@judyvine4250]

As a Chinese I feel super hard to understand her English

[@CareerSchool]

Thank you for the comment

[@podangadubukus]

English is widely spoken , train yourself
