I joined Product Management Accelerator earlier this year. It has been intimidating for job-seeking that the whole searching and interview process seem so long and hard to start with. I landed an FAANG offer and two other offers from giant tech companies.
PMA courses are helpful especially in breaking down the main concepts of product management. It contains not only the concepts but also real-world practice. My favorite part of the program are mock interview and mock case studies. I was able to gain hands-on experience through the mock sessions and have a better understanding of how to approach the questions.
Nancy is a helpful and passionate mentor in helping all the members landing their dream jobs. -

Best investment ever made

I'm so glad that I made the decision to join PMA!!!
I came from a traditional mechanical engineering background and finally figured we were so underpaid and decided to make a career transition. I found out the PMA program on YouTube and went to the master class, and eventually decided to give it a try. Never thought I would meet so many amazing alumni in the program and we support each other along this journey.
The program is set up with a highly job-focused approach. Not only were technical skills taught, but also job hunting and networking skills. What's more important is each student was required to complete a product portfolio - which eventually helped me to land a job in a crypto fintech company as PM. I completed the program in 4 months, and started using the highly effective job search techniques, and was able to land my dream job in the first interview I got. This job tripled my previous engineer salary and I could not be happier!
I cannot express my appreciation for PMA and Dr. Nancy Li. Hands down one of the best investments I have ever made in my life. -

I joined Nancy's program around half year ago start my product manager interview prep. I feel more confident about behavior and product design interview and received approx 10 interviews from Pinterest, Stripe, Meta, Amazon, Dropbox etc after 2 months.
Nancy's framework is very helpful during the interview process to help me capture the key point of product design & strategy interview.
Luckily I received Product Manager Technical offer from Amazon and matched with a AWS team which is my final goal:)
I really appreciate Nancy's help and I think it's a great starting point for your PM journey. -

Transitioned from Technical to Product Manager role
Read more Read less of Anonymous's review
I was ready to transition from a tech role to product management and I had no clue where to start. There were just too many unorganized resources online. And then I found Dr. Nancy Li's Product Manager Accelerator and I got a job in a Fortune 10 company within weeks. What's great about the program:
-The content is very well organized into sections that make us well prepared with resumes and all the way to interviews.
-The community is great. Everyone is ready to help with their experience, mocks and for general support.
-The program includes live mocks which is very helpful to build the product mindset for both experienced as well new product managers.
-And most importantly, Dr. Nancy is an amazing coach and mentor. She believes in each and everyone and this has helped us achieve our goals.
I highly recommend this course and foresee myself staying with the community. -

Nancy’s course was a high return investment in my career. I was not happy in my current role as a Sr. PM, but with the help of this course I made it to the final rounds of a few big companies including FAANG companies and landed a role which was a level up from my last one. -

A program that I would recommend to anyone who want to start a PM journey.
Land a startup PM position within 6 months.
Why this is the best program on the market:
1. Well-structured and practical courses guiding you by hand to hand.
2. Informational and sound mentor system solving every question you have, no matter before the hiring but also after the hiring .
3. Super active community and weekly extra group courses -

Received my PM offer after 6 weeks with the program
The program has plenty of good materials for those who want to become Product Managers. I have learnt the language that PMs need to use during the work and interviews. The program does not only show you how to become successful in PM interviews and also teaches you how to become a better PM after all. High recommended! -

Nancy is the best PM coach I have ever met. She helped me transition from non tech to tech. She was there thoughout the journey from identifying my path, to telling my stories, to preparing for interviews, to negotiating tech offers! I also received lot of help from other students. We supported each other during job search and now we are in different tech companies and still help each other to grow in career. Nancy built an amazing program and an amazing community! -

Doubled or quadrupled my salary!

I've paid for programs before and they teach a lot, but don't put as much emphasis on how to actually get the job. In my professional experience, the job is where will actually learn.
After taking this program for 2 months and committing to it full time, I was able to multiply my total compensation by 2x-4x by receiving a PM offer from a unicorn startup. I declined another offer and had at least 20+ interview requests via LinkedIn. -

The mentor, Dr.Nancy Li is great an inspiration, the program is well designed and teach you step by step how to get a PM job

This program goes beyond my expectation, you can get the maximum out of it and become an PM when you are 100% committed to the program and start building your portfolio/train interview skills by action. Pros:1) Mentor - Dr.Nancy Li: Nancy has an awesome personality. She is punctual, structured, honest, efficient, straight forward and right to the point, and most importantly, she is such a humor! She is passionate about her program, caring about her students and very responsive (she will respond in 24 hrs). She is the person that you could discuss with about your career path strategically, analyze the pros and cons of different offers and give you a direction about where you should go to achieve your goal. Her advice is very personalized and based on your best interest. You can always learn something new from her, she shares inspiring stories and also some life lessons that she has observed in her daily life. 2) The program is well structured starting from networking tips, interview questions, the steps of building a tech product and guidance on building your own portfolio. There are 3 sessions per weeks, two for mock interviews during the weekdays, one is a live training on 8 modules with Nancy on Sundays. In the live training, Nancy goes through the course material briefly and then we will move to a case study. Case study is the most important part in this session, as it gives you the opportunity to work with Nancy step by step how to solve a interview question, and you have the chance to interact with her and get all your questions answered. In the 2-3 hr session, you wouldn't feel bored at all! Important note, this program gives all the resources and guidance to help you be successful, however, you really have to take the action by yourself especially building the portfolio and train your interview skills. Cons:1) Session timeslots：I am located in Germany, whilst the 2/3 training sessions (there are two that are mock interviews and one is for the live training) are in the midnight in my timezone. I would like to have a online interaction with the mentors as well in the mock interview sessions so I could get a direct feedback on my interview answers. 2) Case studies on Sunday training: it would be great to have case studies for different industries. -

Unbelievable Accelerator, Huge Boost to Career
Read more Read less of Anonymous's review
The program created by Dr.Nancy is unbelievable. Its ability to transform individuals into something they could never have imagined is invaluable. Throughout this program, I was able to hone in on core PM skills, learn the right frameworks for success, and develop solid interview preparation. Through the supportive community along with the established set of mentors, I was able to unlock huge potential. The live case studies and continuous feedback were incredibly insightful and helped build confidence within myself. I highly recommend this accelerator, which has been the reason for my success. I was able to land 4 offers as a PM intern: 1 FAANG offer, 2 Fortune 500 offers, and 1 from a top startup.

Friday, March 4th, 2022 - This marks an incredible day for me as I land my first Product Manager - Level 2 offer at a Fortune 500 company. I would love to share my experience with you.
I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in India & worked for four years. Then I decided to come to the USA to pursue my Master's. After graduating with a Master's degree, I joined a company where I contributed value by leading & launching tech products for another four years.
However, whenever I requested growth opportunities internally, I was subjected to bad advice from higher management that "I do not have years of experience to become a PM," "I have to learn project management from other PMs in the company," etc. So, in May 2021, I finally decided to search for a PM role outside the organization. However, little did I realize how competitive the market is until I faced a flurry of rejections adding more to my demotivation.
In December 2021, while browsing some videos over Youtube, I saw Dr. Nancy Li's videos on PM coaching. I decided to try this to get a well-deserved job in the PM domain. In my first onboarding interview with Nancy, she listened to me, understood my struggles & asked me one question "By when do you want to land into a PM offer." I told her by the end of April. I remember she said, "Oh, that's a long time. You will land one by February end or March beginning itself". I will never forget how confident she was & I trusted her.
I attended every class, live session, networking session, followed Nancy's frameworks, drafted my answers for every question in Nancy's question bank, got them reviewed by her & the program mentors & practiced mock interviews with Nancy during the office hour. I learned how to articulate my eight years of expertise into words to clear interviews. Every day, I watched the product sense, execution & strategy videos on the Kajabi portal & finally, I worked hard to create a Product Portfolio for my final round for this company. On the interview day, I wowed every interviewer with my portfolio and the in-depth knowledge I gained throughout my 8-year experience.
It would not have been possible without Nancy's motivation & effort she puts into each & every student & I can vouch for it. The only recommendation is to follow Nancy's framework, do the homework, and keep practicing. The job-hunting process is exhausting; you will fail and have to get up & keep running again. But, be confident in yourself, and you deserve every bit of success. -

Insanely helpful program, jumpstarted my career in Product Management

Prior to joining the accelerator, I never had any PM experience or knowledge of how to land a position. If one were to ask me what a PM does, I would probably give a terrible answer. Within a few months, I began to apply all the strategies and frameworks in my preparation for interviews. This program has taught me to think like a PM and that has been crucial for me. Within no time, I was able to land offers and grow my network of PMs. Everything I learned has accelerated my growth. -
