Description

Save time with this practical Product Management course! My courses, including the original, the "Great Product Manager" helped over 240 people start their Product Management dream jobs in companies like Adobe, Amazon, Microsoft, PayPal, Mercedes-Benz, Visa and Zalando! This is a follow-up to this work to make sure you will rock your Product Management job interview and get the job!

Hi! I am Dr Bart, Senior Product Manager at Microsoft and getting where I am now was a great challenge! In fact, it took years of learning and developing to develop the right skill set. One of those skills is the ability to give a great performance and the right answers in a job interview!

Whatever you did, however great of a Product Manager you are, there is always the final potential stop of a job interview. A lot of things can go wrong there! Unfortunately, you don't have control over everything that happens in that room or over the call. That's why you need to do your best with the elements you can control.

Here is where this course comes in! After completing it you will:

  • know what to research and prepare before the job interview,

  • build up confidence,

  • have the right mindset to try again and again with optimism,

  • be ready for the most common Product Manager job interview questions,

  • have great answers you can rehearse for those,

  • know exactly what each of these questions asks (they are often really asking for a completely different thing!),

  • have refreshed the theory on the key Product Management topics,

  • have a plan to tackle an unexpected question

  • ...and many more!

In this course, I have put everything I know about winning job interviews, both in terms of knowledge as well as being mentally prepared. Those interviews, when failed, can take a big toll on you. Why suffer if you can easily avoid it? I will help you prepare to deal with that!

As for the knowledge part; I've spent weeks of research to make sure I craft the list of the most meaningful and common Product Management questions. Most importantly, I made sure I uncover their real meanings and present to you, what you need to say to crack those questions!

Don't wait, enroll and make sure you will perform brilliantly in your next job interview!


If you have any questions, please reach out to me on LinkedIn or Udemy. I will be more than happy to answer, but in the meantime, here's a quick FAQ:


1. Why 42 questions?

it's just how my research shaped up - 42* made sense in terms of universal and practical usability. If I missed something really important, I will add additional answers to my YouTube channel!


2. Do I need to take the "Great Product Manager" course first?

No, though this course is a follow-up, it was also built as a standalone program.

3. Should I take this course if I already completed the "Great Product Manager" course?

If you are looking for a new Product Manager position, yes!


4. Is it completely new material or is there some overlap with the "Great Product Manager" course?

There is around 20-30% of overlap in general topics between the two courses. However, it's 100% original, revised material with new, recontextualized, and rethought videos delivered in a way to help you best perform in the job interview.


*If you've read "Hitchhiker's Guide to Galaxy" book, I can also tell you that 42 is the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything. That includes the answer to the question "How many questions do I need to know to win my Product Management job interview?".  If not, go read the book, it's a great, light comedy!

Bart is always helpful and insightful. Be it in his courses or his discord group, he leverages them to share his knowledge. I took this course because I heard he did share some amazing things and, I'm sure, after completion, I could apply it to my interview prep and tweak it further to accelerate my journey.

This course is very detailed and explains the questions very well. I also like the written material, and the instructor is very engaging, making it easier to watch all the videos. The only downside of this is the length of the course. If you don't have too much time to prepare for the interview, you might not be able to watch everything, but if you do I highly recommend it.

Excellent course. Gives me a structure and outline to think about what I can talk about for a variety of questions. The explanations seem close to what will work during Tech interviews from his past experience.

The first 20 videos created a launchpad for the answers I was creating for the interviews. The way Bart first makes the concept understand and follows it up with an example is an excellent process.

Thank you! I had my first interview yesterday and I totally nailed it thanks to you! They asked me most of the questions you showcased and I had the right mindset to answer the questions that I wasn't familiar with.
