How to Break Into Product Management Without a Technical Background
You don’t need a CS degree or engineering experience to become a product manager. In this 30-minute session, join Jeremy H., tech exec @ Atlassian and formerly @ Slack, as he walks you through how to break into PM from a non-technical background—and what actually works based on coaching dozens of candidates who’ve landed roles at Microsoft, Google, Adobe, Meta, and more.
We’ll cover:
How to position your background to stand out
Targeting the right companies, roles, and hiring managers
Stepping-stone roles that lead to PM
Networking strategies that open doors
Common mistakes to avoid in your job search
This session is built for candidates coming from consulting, marketing, ops, customer success, and other adjacent roles. Jeremy will keep it tactical and leave time for Q&A.
