Trying to break into the PM space as a Full Stack SWE.
Any advice is appreciated - side projects to work on for this, what recruiters look for, anything else. I've been applying to junior PM roles I could find but no responses so far.

Anyway, if transitioning into a PM role at your current company isn’t possible, here are some things other SWEs have done to get into PM:
Apply for PM jobs at non-famous companies
Get an MBA from a prestigious school
Apply to SWE jobs at companies that are a step up from your current employer and have PM roles that you can eventually transition into
Also, when you apply to PM jobs, make your current role sound PM-ish on your resume
