What US Recruiters Look for in Early-Career Product Managers
In this session, Leland coach Dessy K., who brings deep expertise from leadership in product roles at Amazon, Bukalapak, and TikTok, will guide you on what US recruiters are seeking in early-career product manager candidates. You’ll start with a clear primer on how the role of an early-career PM differs from seasoned PMs, and what makes newer professionals stand out during the hiring process.
From there, Dessy will break down the top qualities that recruiters are watching for—traits like strategic thinking, cross-functional collaboration, and the ability to execute with impact. We’ll dig into how to signal these in your resume and interviews, walk through examples of the strongest applicant profiles, and leave plenty of time for Q&A so you can get tailored advice on how to sharpen your story and shine—no matter where you're starting from.
