This is an exclusive workshop, where you will get to attend one of our actual webinar classes with Product Gym's members. There will be no more than 5 seats being offered.

As a product manager, it is very important to know how to convery your ideas clearly. Whiteboarding sessions during a PM interview are designed to test the interviewee's thought process and how they approach problems on-the-spot. The goal of this session is to teach aspiring (and current) Product Managers how to leverage whiteboarding in their interviews and on the job.

 

Main Takeaways:

    • Whiteboarding for problem definition and prioritization

    • Frameworks to facilitate on-the-spot whiteboarding

    • Whiteboarding live exercise: everyone takes time to define a product problem and present their 'board'

    • Whiteboarding with metrics

    • How to leverage whiteboarding exercises in your roadmaps

     

    Meet the Instructor:

    Meryam Bukhari

    Product Manager at Google

    Meryam is currently a Product Manager within Google's second largest business line: Display Ads, based in their Mountain View headquarters. She spends most of her time working with data scientists and machine learning engineers and sometimes other product managers as well as more direct customer-facing roles like sales and customer support. Before Google, Meryam was a Product Manager at much smaller technology companies also based in the San Francisco Bay Area (Yelp and Quantcast), where she gained firsthand experience on how organizations define, maintain, and grow products and how critical non-technical functions like sales and operations are to being a PM day-to-day.

    Before becoming a PM, Meryam received her MBA from MIT Sloan, where she focused on entrepreneurship and innovation. Meryam started her full-time career as a quantitative analyst in New York City at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York where she got her first taste of being a PM when she led a project turning her team's analytical models into self-serve software. Before that, she received her BA in Economics and Public Policy from Hunter College. One of her favorite work experiences to date has been teaching Product Management at an MIT-run mobile app accelerator in South Africa and she is very excited to get back to teaching with Product Gym. In her spare time, she travels, drinks a lot of coffee, and reads - sometimes all at once!
