S1 E4: Product Ops Hiring and Career Progression - Sharmin Abdo (Head of Product Ops @ Dext)

Sharmin Abdo is the Head of Product Ops @ Dext (formerly Receipt Bank) and is currently hiring for her team. She has been at Dext for over 5 years in previous roles such as Marketing Ops and Customer Success. She also spoke at the PLA Product Ops Summit on Defining Product Ops. On this episode we chat about some of the key traits in hiring for Product Ops and her decision to create a competency framework for the role. I think Sharmin's approach of: 1) starting before you're ready, 2) iterating as you learn and 3) moving in the right direction even if it's not perfect, will resonate with a lot of Product Ops leaders!
