I am wondering if thats expected with questions to explain what i like about a product? and to estimate the market size/opportunity of a GCP service ? Everytime I try to slowly dissect the question, I get challenged in an abrupt way! Mentioning shortage of time and then pushing me to make a mistake, Making me uncomfortable and pressured. #productmanager #product #pminterview #gcp

    Those are definitely basic questions to expect. You should also demonstrate the ability to control the conversation and keep it on track to have any chance to be a successful PM who works with assertive SWEs.

    Not to be rude, but PM might not be the right fit. It seems like you might be unfamiliar with the space or maybe there is something else that is a better fit?

      Ok have it your way. It’s not a contest, just trying to gently suggest that yes it’s normal and don’t be surprised by it.

      I am wondering if thats an obvious technique or not ! By the end, I asked him what do you like about Google and even that question had an attitude, he said it depends on where you come from ? I told him, i am asking you and then be started talking all high and mighty.
