New grad? What did you even study to become a PM?

Yelp QRrragsb OP May 30, 2018

I majored in CS at school and prepared for product design and technical questions for the interview.

Can you share comp numbers? Are you APM at Redfin?

Redfin Rdfn May 30, 2018

Nah I don't work at Redfin. Took a different APM gig. Yelp was 125k base, 100k stock over 4 years, and a 20k signing bonus.

It’s going to be rough as a new grad. Good luck.

Yelp QRrragsb OP May 30, 2018

Why do you say so?

Pandora Diphthong May 30, 2018

Good product managers have experience from the field. I’ve worked with newly minted PMs and they were somewhere between clueless and overwhelmed. I’d say trust and rely on your engs a lot.

Do it. Interns, APMs, senior PMs are all treated the same. Best idea wins and lots of opportunity for personal growth.
