hi All,
i had a great Amazon L7 PM interview last week. however the recruiter took time to speak with me and told me that i did not perform well in Product Strategy which is important in L7 role. however, i was an outstanding performer in other aspects. she told i should wait for 2 years, which i feel is odd. i told her that may be i did not articulate myself better.
i think the interviewer was looking for specific keywords in the product strategy. But i dont know where the gap is?
what do you guys recommend i do?

- Skip breakfast: Frugality
- Eat dinner leftovers: Invent and Simplify
- Expired milk and cereals: Disagree and Commit
- Eat bananas in car: Bias for Action, Earn Trust
- Full course: Insist on the Highest Standards
And so on...
My comments were more about "They have strong judgment and good instincts.". That is not a course of action.
Please don't generalize a persons worth to their company's brand!
As a hiring manager myself, I would be very skeptical hiring someone at principal level from a services company.
OP should first get into a product company that is a startup and move to Amazon L7 later. That way there is no downleveling involved.
