Making a career change to Product Management

Hi All,

I am a banking professional with 10 YoE. Domain is banking ops, and educational background is B.Com. Current designation is Manager Operations.

I have been looking to make a career change, and product management is something that has intrigued me for a very long time now. I have recently been in touch with reps from Air Tribe and ISB (Emiratus) who are providing certifications in product management.

I had detailed conversations with both, but I'm not really sure about which one is more industry relevant and if these certifications are indeed helpful with my background. Don't want to throw away 1 Lac rupees on something that will be just a piece of paper.

I would greatly appreciate any pointers and recommendations from you all before I move forward (or i don't). I am looking forward to the comments.

Thanks in advance!

Switching to product management from banking ops is bold and absolutely possible. Certifications help, but what really moves the needle is real-world insight and guidance from actual PMs. Before spending ₹1L, spend 1 hour with a mentor who’s walked the path. Join Hiked.in and get clarity from top product managers who’ll help you skip the guesswork.

Yes their courses and certifications are very costly, and at the end even after completing you have to find the job by own.

So, the better way is start engaging in a growing community, share your work, review others work, and so on. By doing so, you would be able to see how the people are thinking.
