Don't ignore this post guys , you people are also my ray of hope...

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share a quick update and a bit of where I’m at currently.

I’ve been trying my best to break into Product Management, especially entry-level APM roles, but despite consistent efforts over the past few months, I haven’t landed any opportunities yet.

To avoid a career gap, I joined a BPO role — but it’s not aligned with my long-term goals, and I’ve now resigned and am currently on my notice period which is ending within 20 days. I’m actively exploring Product Analyst, Program Associate, or Ops roles too — but most of them require 1-2 years of experience, which makes it really hard for freshers or early-career folks to even get a foot in the door.

That said, I’ve been shortlisted for the Google APM program, and I have my interview next week — I’m preparing well for it, but I know how unpredictable things can be and I can’t place all my hopes on a single opportunity.

If you know of any openings — even contract-based product/strategy/ops roles — that are truly open to early-career candidates, I’d be super grateful if you could help out or connect me.

Thanks for reading, and good luck to everyone else navigating the same uncertainty. We’ll find our way.
