! And every time, our cohort members are blown away by how cool it is!! It's so critical for product managers to understand the basics of UI, UX, and CX and our cohort members are learning up 💯
I want some of you to stop crediting the tech industry and the amazing jobs you have as to why you’re living a great life. YOU are the one who had to gain the skills and get the job. Why are you giving all the thanks to the company that NEEDS you? YOU earned that.
Attention! The cutoff to be considered for Cohort 3 is JANUARY 31! If you apply after January 31st, you'll be considered for Cohort 4 (which kicks off in August).
More details about applying are on our website -
team is looking to interview folks that have booked travel with a travel agent before! Is that you? Can you spend a few minutes talking to one of our teams? 🥺
My first newsletter is out! If you're a PM, aspiring PM, or interested in the niche of sports data and analytics, do subscribe.
I get asked a lot what I do as a PM for sports data collection software.
Well, I answered it here. Or at least started to.
Great week 2 for Cohort 2!! Love covering discovery - we had so many quality discussion topics and questions!
In the Lab requires every team complete at least 2 user conversations, and it sets the cohort members apart! Learning this skill is critical for future PM success 💞
We've already filled a few spots in Cohort 3 (starts in April) and have 200 applicants already - if you're interested in being considered for Cohort 3, and are North America, South America, or Caribbean based, try to apply soon! Apps close Feb 1!
Cohort 2 kicks off in a week!! So excited!! 🤩🤩 We've expanded up to 30 product managers for this cohort and have some extremely bright folks in the group.
Hiring managers, as always, if your 2023 plans include hiring early career product roles, hmu 😊😊
What an AMAZING first day of presentations from Cohort 1! Huge congrats to Miriam, Elaine, & Longinos for two amazing presentations and totally functioning apps! So proud of these 3 and they have built so many skills! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Tonight is Day 1 for Cohort 1 final build presentations!! 🎉🎉 So excited to share the great work these teams have done! Will be sharing out links to the products they built tonight! 👀
It’s officially been almost 12 months of my journey into discovering the world of #productmanagement!
I wanted to make a little thread 🧵on my experience so far:
#LatinaEqualPay, is not a celebration. It's a call to action!
Because of the wage gap, Latinas lose over $1 million in wages during the course of their career + lifetime. We deserve equal pay.
How are you taking action?

brand.
My logo and brand design process has many steps, one of which is when I lock myself in my office for a week and make dozens of logo sketches before landing on a few I like enough to present to my client.
We're opening up a limited number of spots to watch the first day of the Cohort 1 final presentations! 👀
If you're a prospective cohort member or if you're thinking you might want to hire our cohort members, you're especially welcome!! Register here:
Are you an established product manager who wants to give back to the community? Do you love our mission of pulling underrepresented backgrounds into product management?? 🥰
We would love your help! Looking for mentors especially!
podcast - featuring guests who are only early or mid career product managers (directors and up are DQed!). Goal would be to hear more authentic experiences! Does that sound interesting to others? 🤔
There is a post going around from a product manager who encourages people to read a bunch of books so they can break into product management.
This is dishonest, misleading engagement bait. If you are not already a product manager, those books will not help you get a job.
This program is great for people already close to product management who need mentors and interview practice! If that's you, it's worth a look.
(it is NOT for people who are brand new to product!)
Foster's Product Management Applications open tomorrow yall! x @UWFosterSchool#tech#scrum#productmanagement#marketing#agile#AskTechTwitterhttps://foster.uw.edu/centers/the-product-management-center/ipm-accelerator/…
Catching up on the #MTBF conversation
One of the reasons In the Lab PM exists is because of these predatory programs. We are
1. Free to the cohort
2. Providing people with original content that is based on 15 years of experience in product management
And that's a wrap on Cohort 1!! 🎉 Tonight was our last content session. All that's left is finishing up the builds and our final presentations! What an absolutely amazing 12 weeks with our 20 cohort member product managers 🥰🥰
in The Lab tonight to talk about #prodmgmt interviewing, resumes, LinkedIn, and general career advice! Thank you both SO MUCH for your time and expertise!! 🤩
