Answer 1

- I want to gain a formal learning in the art and science of managing people and then would want to build my career in product management domain. I would want to learn all the skills required to pull off this role so that I can constantly grow in the same direction.

- The jobs that I held was of a trainee, assistant product manager and product expert. My main duties were to handle the internal product of the organisation and I was allotted a team wherein I was responsible for writing specs for the team, getting the work done from them and report the final numbers to the management.

- I enjoyed being the assistant product manager because I was given the responsibility and ownership of the entire product and I realised that I enjoy more working independently rather than working in somebody else’s directions.

- I can offer my experience in managing internal products because I have strengths like people management, resource optimizations, and good communication and also I am a good listener who implements all the relevant feedback to improve the product. Weaknesses are that I need to learn how to delegate work and also should be able to multitask.
