Product managers have become a key part of the tech development life cycle over the past 20 years. Even though the position has continued to grow, many people still aren\u2019t sure what a product manager does. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Product managers<\/a> are in charge of helping a company find what customers need, and then delivering products to fill those needs. They research gaps in the market, come up with an idea to fill those gaps, and work with multiple teams within the same company to bring that vision to reality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We haven\u2019t even mentioned the word \u201ccode\u201d once, even though product managers are an integral part of the tech ecosystem. That\u2019s because product managers focus much less on the technical intricacies of software production, and more on the big picture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is Product Management?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are plenty of niches for coders to find lucrative work in the booming tech industry, but that route isn\u2019t for everyone. Product management is a great entry point into the tech industry for people with analytical and creative minds who may not be interested in coding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But because the field is relatively new, it can be hard to find a quality education that can guarantee results and a new career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily, we live in a time where organizations like Product Gym<\/a> are raising the bar for product managers around the world. Much like the best gyms you\u2019ve been to, Product Gym provides a high-intensity workout with a strong community feel. And it gets results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In as little as 45 to 60 days, Product Gym can help you enter the booming tech industry. It\u2019s already helped more than 1,500 first-time and experienced product managers land the jobs of their dreams with a 98% job placement rate for its members. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is Product Gym?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Product Gym is a selective membership organization for product managers around the world. Members learn more than just the skills they need to work as product managers, they also become part of an exclusive community for networking and career acceleration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Product Gym was born from its co-founders\u2019 realization that people needed a clear roadmap to find jobs in tech<\/a>. They also realized that people needed an entry point into tech even if they weren\u2019t interested in coding, data science, or UX\/UI design<\/a>. To that end, they set out to build an organization that did things differently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn\u2019t a bootcamp. It\u2019s a membership organization dedicated to disrupting the way that people enter tech. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Was Product Gym Founded?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The co-founders of Product Gym come from business backgrounds. Cody Chang started several businesses in many different countries, and he felt like he needed to find something new. Once he returned to New York City from one of his international ventures, he decided he wanted to transition into tech. During a coding bootcamp, he realized that coding wasn\u2019t for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cody stumbled into the product management field where he met Richard Chen, the top technical recruiter at a local firm. Richard had misgivings about what he felt was a disconnect between career training at bootcamps and the way he saw it working at his job. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both men felt there had to be a better way to bring people into tech. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They worked together to dissect every aspect of the job interview. Through that process, these two men reverse-engineered a curriculum that became the foundation of the Product Gym experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Can Product Gym Help Start My Career? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re admitted into this organization<\/a>, you\u2019ll be exposed to every element that makes an elite product manager. You\u2019ll gain the hard and soft skills you need to succeed at your job interview and on the job itself. You\u2019ll learn how to supervise a product\u2019s progress while working with the people building the product to get great results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But just as importantly, you\u2019ll learn how to find the job that allows you to use those skills. Product Gym members regularly generate 15 to 20 calls per week inviting them to the first round of interviews, and in some cases, get requests for additional calls that they start to lose track. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As members get to the offer stage, if they don\u2019t like their options, they know exactly how to go out and get more interviews until they find their dream job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Product Gym\u2019s rigorous program demystifies the job hunting process to make it very digestible. As you work through the program, you\u2019ll learn exactly what you need to do to land an interview, and exactly how to turn those interviews into job offers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Does Product Gym Work? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Infographic<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As we\u2019ve mentioned above, Product Gym isn\u2019t a bootcamp. It\u2019s a professional organization that works with you from the day you\u2019re admitted to long after you\u2019ve landed your first job. With new skills and a support network that lasts a lifetime, there\u2019s no end to your Product Gym experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Product Gym Process<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Instead of giving you a short career training at the end of the program like other options, Product Gym starts the process from day one. You\u2019ll revamp your resume, LinkedIn profile, and cover letter and immediately start applying for jobs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since it takes two to three weeks from an application to see an interview, you\u2019ll have time to work through the program before you start sitting down with recruiters. By the time you\u2019re getting your first interviews, you\u2019ll be a polished candidate that recruiters would love to bring aboard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Product Gym curriculum<\/a> gives you an idea of what to expect in the thick of the program. Throughout this uncompromising curriculum for managers at all stages of their careers, you\u2019ll learn the key skills you need to thrive in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The curriculum rotates depending on your cohort and the availability of the experts. Every day, on class days, you\u2019ll start your courses at 9:30 AM and work until 3:30 PM with a 30-minute break between your morning and afternoon courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learning Product Management<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Many of your first days will begin with lessons on the fundamentals of product management and interviews. For example, one portion of the lesson plan teaches you how to ask recruiters the right questions to gain their confidence and prove you\u2019re qualified for the position. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From there, you\u2019ll expand your product management mind frame with case studies and technical instruction. As the sessions continue, you\u2019ll study product launches and the data science skills you need to understand the data behind your decisions. You\u2019ll then work on polishing your job hunt materials and pitch before delving into UX research and design, technical concepts, and marketing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Career and Interview Prep<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Throughout this process, you\u2019ll also learn everything you need to pass the first, second, third, and final round of interviews to land the job you\u2019ve been training for. Every facet of the curriculum shows you how to use your newfound knowledge on each subject to impress recruiters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though it will be a challenge to study data science, engineering, marketing, management, and more every day for weeks, you won\u2019t be going through it alone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Exclusive Community <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The challenges of this program help you form a bond with your fellow members during your Product Gym experience. The ideal Product Gym member is a high achiever by nature, who isn\u2019t afraid to work as part of a team to achieve a common goal. If these key traits describe you, you\u2019ll be primed for success as a product manager as you learn among like-minded people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout your time in the program, you\u2019ll see it working in real-time. The program admits members on a rolling basis, and you\u2019ll regularly see people around you getting hired. Before you know it, it\u2019ll be your turn to advance into the next stage of your product management career. But even after you land a job, you\u2019ll still have the lifelong friendships you forged in the program and lifetime access to membership perks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lifetime Access<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If it takes you longer than expected to land a job, then don\u2019t worry. Whether it takes you a month, a year, or even longer, your Product Gym membership will never expire. You\u2019ll always have access to the program\u2019s full features if you ever need to come back and brush up on your skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With a career-focused curriculum and lifetime access to membership, there are a lot of perks to the Product Gym experience. Though the program leads to tangible results, you\u2019ll also find rewarding intangibles that make the challenging program even more appealing.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Product Gym, you\u2019ll make lifelong bonds with like-minded people in the community, and you\u2019ll build the confidence to never settle for a job out of convenience. With recruiters constantly calling, you\u2019ll have your pick of jobs whenever you\u2019d like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if you ever find you\u2019ve picked an unfulfilling position, or you\u2019re not being valued as much as you\u2019d like, you don\u2019t have to stay at a job you dislike out of necessity. You\u2019ll always have options when it comes to your career, which is an uncommon luxury in the modern job market. And you\u2019ll have Product Gym to thank. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If these qualities sound appealing, you can attend one of Product Gym\u2019s free trainings<\/a> to find out if the program is right for you, and if you\u2019re right for the program. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Product managers have become a key part of the tech development life cycle over the past 20 years.
