GBMUST-HAVE for PMs looking for a job A must-have for any Product Managers seeking a job in this market. The program is very structured and offers a lot of qualified coaches. They guide you through everything - starting with a "Clarity" session that helps create a concrete job-search strategy, a thorough Resume/LinkedIn review with a coach, lots of content on all sorts of interview prep - from behavioral to every type of product sense interview, weekly opportunities to meet one-on-one with several coaches for mock interviews as well as a vibrant community of peers and group coaching sessions weekly. The program literally has it all. There is also a "mindset" component - which helps job-seekers stay positive and approach opportunities with confidence. The staff helps administer the Slack community, with job-alerts, referrals and much more. A successful job search requires a lot of hard-work, but this program makes sure you are totally prepared, you have mastery over product sense interviews, you have perfected your stories and your narrative. The structure was what I didn't have before, and that made all the difference. Also, the program is suitable for all career stages - from early to late stage. My experience was simply fantastic, and I landed a great job at a great company with 33% increase in my overall comp - and a lot of the kudos should go to Intentional Product Manager. Thank you IPM!

GBAggressive and 'salesy' approach Unfortunately my experience with Shobhit was not a good one. It started off well with Shobhit answering my questions honestly and transparently, providing details of the program and a fair price. However when it came to actually making a decision, he emailed me agressively with a very 'salesy' tone that I must make the decision 'today'. 'Today' for me was a Sunday I was spending with my family for the Super Bowl. The next morning he informed me his offer was rescinded. When I exchanged emails with him he told me I did not display enough urgency for him (keep in mind, I'm spending the day with my family on a Sunday and still discussing the financials with my wife). Overall I believe in his business was what Intentional Product Manager is trying to achieve. However the aggressive approach is not for me. I prefer an approach based on 'trusting' a product. Shobhit's approach felt like a poor display of empathy, a lack of understanding of his cusotmer, and ironically enough, bad product management..

GBGreat Experience I have worked in B2B SaaS and MarTech for over ten years. I always seek opportunities that challenge me and help me grow professionally. I wanted to succeed, so I joined the Intentional Product Manager and their Product Leader Blueprint program. I learned a lot from them. They gave me new ways to think and work better in product management. The Product Leader Blueprint program focused on improving my strategic thinking and communication skills, which are crucial for any product leader. This approach was very enlightening. It taught me the importance of thinking like a CEO, taking full responsibility for my role, and creating a story that connects with customers and colleagues. However, my journey didn't stop there. Faced with a career transition, I was at a crossroads, striving to secure my dream job in a highly competitive market. The Intentional Job Search program was my next stop. Through a meticulously structured approach that emphasized crafting and perfecting my narrative for interviews, I could navigate the complexities of the job market with precision and confidence. The program's focus on engaging deeply with the content and leveraging the coaches' expertise was a game-changer for me. The rigorous practice sessions and the constructive feedback truly prepared me to stand out in the final rounds of interviews, transforming potential opportunities into solid job offers. Landing my dream role at Twilio is a significant achievement for me. I'm particularly excited to work in the Segment side of the business, focusing on data and applications. This opportunity is a testament to the efficacy of the Intentional Product Manager programs. They gave me the skills and strategies to succeed in my field. They also supported me and guided me through the competitive job market. If you are considering joining the Intentional Product Manager program, here is my advice: trust the process, fully commit, and stay open to the journey ahead. You will improve your product management skills with strategic insights, practical tools, and personalized coaching. This will help you achieve significant career milestones.

NLWorth every penny spent! The IJS program by IPM has helped me tremendously! The curriculum and coaching are incredible! The mock interviews and story refining helped me get the needed feedback and prepare for the gruelling Amazon interviews. I was also surprised to get a supportive community where I was constantly encouraged and told I was not alone! I landed my job via a referral from another person in the community. My advice to anyone who is in the same place I was: Don't waste your time with certifications. This program is worth the investment. The return is invaluable. If you do join this program, take advantage of the community. Do not be afraid to break the ice; give and get honest feedback. This program will make you stronger all around. I am so thankful that I decided to join this program and community.
