This is a wild market for product managers. The hiring landscape has shifted more in the last year than it did in the previous decade.

With hundreds of thousands of people actively looking for their next role, we thought it would be helpful to invite a couple of folks from the Supra community to have a chat about how to navigate this job market. For those unfamiliar with Supra, it’s an invite-only community for elite product leaders that Marc founded.

In this episode, Ben and Marc were joined by Gaurav Hardikar (VP Product @ HomeLight who mentors a ton of PMs who are changing roles) and Andrew Chapello (FinTech product leader who was recently in the market for the first time after 8 years and successfully ran a super intentional search).

Our conversation covered a ton of ground, including:

* How the PM market has changed in the last 6-12 months

* How to set yourself up for success as a candidate in this market

* Tips on getting interviews 

* Why cold applications and cover letters are a waste of time

* Advice for running due diligence on companies before accepting offers

* And more!

If you’re on the market for your next product role or thinking about it, we think you’ll find this conversation relevant and actionable - thanks for listening!
