I am curious to hear from anyone who joined Google as a a Sr PM or Group PM. I previously had informal chats but never interviewed. My experience: I had been put in touch with a Director PM in whose domain I have expertise (I reached out to his boss, also a Director, on LI). Had two informal chats. We initially discussed that I'd likely be targeting GPM. Then spoke about a specific role that was SPM. But it was filled by an internal candidate before I could interview. All within 2-3 weeks. 1. Are all PM hires at this level specialized? 2. What teams likely to value enterprise systems and SaaS experience? (analytics, ad tech, CRM). 3. I believe hiring a t this level is done by dedicated "exec" recruiters?
In my very recent experience, 1. No 2. Not sure beyond the obvious ones 3. Yes
Are you asking about Google or Uber?
