How to switch from Engineering to Product Management roles? ✅ | Do PM roles require an MBA? 🤔

Hey awesome people,

In this video, I have invited Sarthak, Associate product manager at Phonepe. Right after college he joined ZS associates as a business technology associate and worked there for a year. Then, he directly made his career jump to Phonepe as an associate product manager.

Sarthak has very less industry experience, doesn't have an MBA and instead comes from an engineering background but still, he was able to crack this experience-intensive role purely based on his skills!

This video is going to be really helpful for those who want to get into product management right out of their college!
