2. I’ve observed people with weak product thinking who spend interviews describing obvious product improvement processes that everyone already knows, instead of proposing innovative new functionalities.
1. Many people assume product management is purely non-technical, and while they’re partially right, you need a solid grasp of technology if you want a package above 20 LPA.
