7 Things That Destroy Your Product Manager Interview Chances: 1. Generic CVs that don't match job requirements verbatim - in today's saturated market, this gets you filtered out instantly 2. Treating the interview like a regular PM discussion - without structured answers, you'll fail even with great experience 3. Relying on your big tech brand name alone - after mass layoffs, FAANG on the CV isn't unique anymore 4. Only using Linkedin's Easy Apply - Have you heard of anyone who converted those clicks to interviews lately? 5. Focusing only on improving PM skills - being a good PM doesn't make you good at PM job interviews 6. Thinking binge-watching mock interviews is enough - without learning proper structure first, they're moderately useful 7. Expecting an offer just because of your previous roles - even billion-dollar scope PMs struggle in today's market Avoid these at all costs - I've seen them sink countless qualified candidates. What mistakes have you encountered in your PM interview journey?
