The Best! The Authentic Product Garage
If you’re serious about product management, this is 100% worth it. The competitive environment does half the work for you, pushing you to grow fast. The assignments are super fun and hands-on—you’ll actually enjoy doing them.
And Arindam? A one-man army. His mentorship feels like having 100 wishes granted at once.
Just go for it, peeps. You won’t regret it!
Thank me later! XD -

From structured content to hands-on projects and incredible mentorship, every element of the program is thoughtfully designed to shape you into a confident and capable product manager. I’m beyond grateful to the mentors and the entire NextLeap team who genuinely invest in your growth.
Their guidance not only helped me build strong fundamentals but also gave me the clarity and confidence to crack PM interviews — and ultimately kickstart my journey in Product Management. Future looks bright from here.
Thank you, NextLeap, for believing in me and bringing out the best in me — couldn’t have done it without you.
Best,

Great learning
Read more Read less of Ryan Chowdhury's review
In short it's worth it. I was already having a product experience so I thought it would not be worth it but after I joined, the classes of Arindam was very insightful especially the case hours in which he shared his personal insights from experience in Flipkart as director of PM. Other instructors were not that good but okish. Max students are who wants to transition to PM hence the hiring partners were also hiring for interns, and APM mostly. Another great thing was peers, you make friends and can do mock interviews together which improves interview skills. Also they are beta testing ai one too. Mentor support was not that much helpful for me personally I don't know about others. Also you need to clear graduation project and mentor product interview to sit for placements. At last I would say the investment was worth it, i learnt how to do 1st principle thinking to build products. -

Effective Learning program & Industry aligned assessment

I was enrolled in Product Design Fellowship last year. What I really liked about the whole program was industry aligned course. The instructors were practicing Design & Product professionals and the mentors were available every week to solve our issues and help us build our portfolio showcases. The mentor I was assigned to also helped us in understanding the course milestone evaluations and also gave us an Idea of the product certification assessment. If you are looking to learn and ready to put in hours for this course then it will be a rewarding experience in the longer run. -

The experience is quite subjective—it really depends on where you are professionally and what you're looking for. Personally, I wanted to build a solid portfolio, and NextLeap does a great job at that. Their instructors stand out compared to the industry, ensuring you develop strong product sense and technical skills. At the end of the day, it’s all about learning—if you have that mindset, this program is a no-brainer. -

Practical and relevant skillset addition through the course

The comprehensive curriculum along with the weekly assignments made it very easy to understand the course. The cherry on the top is the community which is incredibly supportive, collaborative, and engaging.
The instructors are seasoned product managers and subject matter experts, which helped boost the practicality of the course. The course is very hands on, where each weekly assignment is inspired from a real world product management challenge.
From the basics of design thinking to conducting user research and creating high fidelity prototypes, this course ensures the students inculcate first principle thinking to solve problems. -

Product Management Fellowship Experience

Nextleap has been the most important part of my journey in Product Management. The best part about nextleap, apart from a great instructor like Arindam, is the structure with which the course is designed , as it covers everything about PM in a correct order. Also, bagging a product role as a fresher was a challenging task for me and I had my own doubts about it, but nextleap assured that it is possible and today my dream has become a reality because of them. Thank you! -

NextLeap Product Management Fellowship

I wasn’t sure what career path to pick and then I stumbled upon the NextLeap Fellowship. The live sessions were extremely insightful and even the online material was very well curated. The entire fellowship was very engaging despite multiple cohorts running simultaneously. All the industry best mentors took the live sessions and were all very approachable and extremely supportive. It didn’t just end with the graduation project. I reached out to my mentor and Arindam himself multiple times when I was struggling with my initial days of my first PM job and I was actually surprised to get replies from him. He’s always got your back. I always had a very skeptical view about ed-techs but the experience at NextLeap completely changed my mind. There’s no over the top promises, and they’re very accountable for the promises made and it’s not transactional at all. Everyone is always there to help you.
Anybody who wants to jump into Product Management but not sure of what Product Management, this is the go to course. Of course, for a very very affordable price. All the other courses out there are very misleading - I myself went through a bad experience. I think NextLeap’s PM fellowship is the best one out there.
Before I forget, my current job is through NextLeap. And I got this placement support post many months of my cohort ending. They extended the services due to COVID. The whole placement process was so smoothly handled. I am extremely grateful to Meha, the placement coordinator who always responded, didn’t leave me hanging.
Overall, extremely extremely grateful to NextLeap for shaping my career. -

NextLeap PM Fellowsip Review
This is fellowship is a good program for leaning about product management. The sessions about interview questions benefitted me the most. After the graduation preparing and practising for job interviews with the mentors gives you an advantage when you are applying for jobs. -

Best course for someone trying to break into product management especially freshers!
Read more Read less of Anand M V's review
This course covers everything that a fresher requires to break into the product management. They provide placement for internships too which adds value to a fresher resume. Entire course is broken down into steps and easy to consume and understand. The graduation project and a portfolio page adds more credibility to the employers. The engagement is also high as compared to a static course in other sites. -

Better than I thought of
NextLeap gave me the opportunity to land my first product role and provided excellent mentorship throughout the process. I'm incredibly grateful for the foundation they laid for my career. If you're looking to break into product management, I wholeheartedly recommend NextLeap. -

Recommended for a better, collaborative learning experience

I joined this fellowship to complement my PG program and get more real-world exposure to product management. The first thing that I found interesting was the mentor circle and the groups that used to brainstorm on different product cases. So many viewpoints to solve the cases, thanks to my mentor Himanshu for engaging sessions. The way the program is structured makes learning fun and, at the same time instills some discipline. I recommend not to skip the week more than once and stay on track. The quality of the instructors, their humbleness, and hands-on sessions have given me so much confidence that I still find it useful when doing my product work. Thanks to Arindam for regular sessions on interview preparation, resume building and career tips. I found my product job through NextLeap and it was worth the wait. A family-like feel and a lot of gratitude towards NextLeap team.
Thank you! -

- NextLeap's Product Management Fellowship was a transformative experience for me. The mentorship, especially from Parth Dixit, provided deep insights into PM fundamentals like metrics, prioritization, and A/B testing. Their career services support was instrumental in refining my interview preparation and portfolio presentation, which directly helped me secure a role at Aspyr AI Labs. This program is perfect for aspiring PMs or anyone looking to level up their product management skills.

Good & structured course

The fellowship was a transformative experience, a real roller-coaster ride where we not only learned but also applied our learnings to real-world problems. Initially, the learning process felt challenging because we had to think like a product guy which was new to me. However, as I gained more insights and skills, the journey became more manageable and now I feel much more confident in my abilities.
I had an excellent experience with NextLeap's career services. From the beginning of my job search to the interview process, salary negotiations and finally onboarding, NextLeap played a crucial role in supporting me every step of the way.

This fellowship has been an invaluable experience in my product management journey, thanks to its structured curriculum, practical focus, and exceptional mentors.
I particularly enjoyed mentor Vivek Agarwal’s classes, which were rich in real-world insights, and Arindam’s sessions, which were accurate and to the point, giving me a solid grasp of core product management concepts. In addition, the career portal and services were instrumental in helping me secure my current product role -

Some of my friends recommended the Nextleap PM Fellowship to me, and I have to say that it was a great decision that I made to enroll in the cohort. It was a very transformative journey full of learning, networking opportunities, proper interview preparation, etc. The tutors and mentors are well-versed with the content and follow a very structured approach. The learning happens by taking up real-world case studies and discussions just like an MBA classroom environment. The curriculum is well structured and intuitive with assignments to test your understanding. We have a graduating project at the end of the cohort where you have the chance to work on real-world problems, qualifying that you become a Top Fellow. The job assistance is really helpful with a wide range of portfolio companies coming on. In the end, I would like to be thankful to the NextLeap team for being super supportive and exclusive. For all the people reading this, I would recommend going for the fellowship and working consistently throughout the course. All the best! -

NextLeap is an intensive fellowship.
Heavy work for weekly milestone and learning material.
Work to do for Getting a PM job is different from Actually doing the PM work.
It's easy to get lost in the swarm of material, new connections and weekly learnings.
I focussed on the former during my fellowship.
After the fellowship course of 2 months, this is part 1.
It's your choice if you are seeking placement support. If yes, you'll have to take part in process of becoming eligible to get placement support via becoming a top fellow by doing a course graduation project(max 3 attempts immediately after course completion, one each month) , peer mock interviews and getting a yes from mentor mock interview. This is part 2.
Part 3: then you'll get added to placements channel just like college placements. Opportunities come and we can apply.
Product knowledge and building a product portfolio is where NextLeap helps. NextLeap also provides placement support.
As you are aware of the current job market crisis. It's the same for Product opportunities. A little dry. Better to keep expectations low and effort maximum. Probability of bagging a Product role with nextleap is far higher than without. -

More value than I paid for
Read more Read less of Rashi Mishra's review
The fellowship formed a strong foundation for me as a designer. I made sure to be in sync with the course calendar, and that helped me a lot in becoming a Top Fellow in the first attempt itself. I got to meet incredible design instructors- the best of the industry and an absolutely great mentor. Becoming a top fellow opened gates for placement support, and the team proactively made sure of sending profiles of fellows to apt openings. The hassle of getting an internship was shared by the career team helping me focus only on take home assignments and interviews, rather than putting energy into finding vacancies and following up with recruiters. -

Worth the investment!
I came across NextLeap’s platform by searching about Product Management and was instantly impressed with the curriculum they offer and it didn’t disappoint, really!
Advice is put in the hard work from your side and they’ll provide enough support to you as well -

NextLeap has been an invaluable asset in my journey towards mastering product management. The comprehensive curriculum, coupled with expert mentorship, has equipped me with the necessary skills and knowledge to confidently tackle any product interview.
One of the most significant advantages of NextLeap is the exceptional quality of its tutors. Their deep industry experience and insightful teaching methods have not only enhanced my understanding of core product management concepts but also instilled a practical approach to problem-solving. The interactive learning sessions, engaging discussions, and real-world case studies have made the learning process both enjoyable and effective.
The personalized mentorship sessions provided by NextLeap have been particularly beneficial. My mentor has been instrumental in guiding me through the intricacies of product strategy, roadmap planning, and user experience design. Their constructive feedback and expert advice have helped me refine my thinking and improve my overall approach to product management.
Furthermore, NextLeap's commitment to fostering a supportive learning environment has been commendable. The collaborative nature of the program has allowed me to connect with like-minded individuals, share experiences, and learn from each other. The peer learning opportunities have significantly enriched my learning experience.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend NextLeap to anyone aspiring to excel in product management. It is an investment that pays off handsomely, providing the tools, knowledge, and support needed to succeed in today's competitive job market.

Overhyped Course With Poor Post-Enrollment Support
Read more Read less of Anonymous's review
My experience with NextLeap was largely disappointing. While Arindam Sir’s sessions were informative, the content itself was nothing beyond what is already freely available on YouTube. Much of the course revolved around installing tools and following along, rather than offering deep, original learning or meaningful mentorship.I did find a few guest sessions valuable, but considering I paid ₹40,000, the overall value did not justify the cost. Despite making three attempts, I was unable to clear the evaluation rounds. What felt particularly unfair was that several candidates who relied heavily on AI tools such as Google Stitch to generate designs were selected, while I combined AI with my own design skills and was still rejected—without receiving clear or actionable feedback. The reasons given for rejection felt vague and unconvincing.Another major issue was the project submission process. Their website frequently faced technical glitches during submissions, which made uploading projects frustrating and unreliable. These issues were never acknowledged or taken into consideration during evaluations, even though they directly impacted the submission experience.During the course, Akansha was responsive, but once the program ended, communication dropped significantly. It felt like there was little genuine concern for students after enrollment. The team makes strong efforts to get you to enroll, using big promises and confident messaging, but the post-enrollment experience does not reflect those claims.There is significant hype around this course online, which raises expectations. Unfortunately, the reality does not match the marketing. The level of assistance, mentorship, and accountability offered is minimal, especially when compared to established institutions. For anyone considering this program, I would recommend first strengthening your basics through free resources like YouTube and then investing in programs from reputed institutes that provide structured learning and real guidance.This is my honest experience, shared to help others make a more informed decision. -

Structured, Practical Learning Experience
Read more Read less of Anonymous's review
I joined NextLeap looking for a structured and hands-on way to learn, and overall, my experience has been a really positive one. The program is well planned, and the curriculum is broken down clearly, which makes it easier to follow without feeling overwhelmed. I especially liked the strong focus on practical projects, as they helped me connect what I was learning to real-world situations instead of just theory.
The instructors and mentors were supportive, approachable, and genuinely invested in helping us improve. The feedback on assignments was specific and useful, which made it easier to understand where I could do better. Since the program is part-time and online, it was manageable alongside other commitments, which was a big plus for me.
Overall, I’d recommend NextLeap to anyone who is serious about upskilling and is willing to put in the effort, especially if you’re looking for practical learning rather than just watching recorded videos. -

Data analyst Fellowship
The fellowship provided a well-structured learning path covering everything from Excel, SQL, Python, and Tableau to real-world case studies and projects. What I appreciated most was how practical and hands-on the program was every milestone focused on solving real business problems, which helped me gain strong analytical thinking and storytelling skills.

My experience with NextLeap’s Product Management Fellowship was enriching and practical. The program is well-structured, focuses heavily on hands-on learning, and provides a clear understanding of what product management involves in real world settings. Over 12 weeks, I worked on multiple mini-projects and one final capstone, which helped me apply PM frameworks, conduct user research, and create PRDs and wireframes. -

I am especially grateful for the numerous opportunities you gave me to connect with other fellows, showcase my graduation project, and build my confidence. Before joining NextLeap, my knowledge of product management was limited.
The resources, mock interview sessions, and in-depth lectures have been invaluable—I still revisit them to learn and refine my skills!
NextLeap is not just a program; it’s a game-changer, truly providing people like us with the opportunity to secure product management roles in some of the best companies. -

Upraised charges a bomb but offers solid support while Next Leap is affordable yet lacks guidance No sample projects minimal direction and vague curriculum with key topics like Agile and RICE framework missing Interview sessions exist but aren’t helpful and there’s zero support With 100+ people stuffed in a cohort asking doubts is impossible Clearly targeted at freshers so if you’re experienced better skip it Forget placements they claim it’s for top fellows but even they don’t get placed Feels like a betrayal -

I had a pleasant experience with product design fellowship at nextleap
Read more Read less of Anonymous's review
Next leap was the right decision I made when I chose product designing to be my career. The syllabus covered everything for a person to kick start his career in product designing. They also made us do practical project along with the classes so that we understood the meaning of doing each steps. And at last we had to do projects with 3 chances . So after completing the course I had 3 projects to keep in my portfolio. We also had full time assistance. We could ask doubts any time . Message or a call .Even if it took some time I got placed as a design intern at rise11technologies.
