5 PM Job Search Mistakes Keeping You Stuck

If your PM job search feels stuck… this episode is for you. 🫶 Most PM job searches don’t fail from lack of effort. Usually, they're stuck because of a few well-intentioned mistakes that are sabotaging their traction. In this episode, I share the 5 PM job search mistakes I’m seeing everywhere right now (and, of course, what to do instead): * Being “open to anything” is undermining your credibility * Thinking of your interview as a test, not a pitch * Applying to roles you’re overqualified for * Expecting consistent interviews when you lose momentum * Confusing volume with a clear application strategy Connect with me on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jess-sherlock/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jess-sherlock/] Learn more about product coaching: www.jesssherlock.com [http://www.jesssherlock.com/]

More Resume Tweaks Won’t Get You Job Interviews (Do this Instead)

If you’re updating your resume for every single job and still not getting interviews, this episode is for you. I talk about why more tweaks, different keywords, and endless customization using resume-scoring tools usually doesn't help - it just leads to frustration and burnout. And, of course, I share what to do instead to get more, and better, interviews.  Spoiler alert: you need to craft a clear, compelling story that makes you the obvious choice for the job. Unclear positioning is the #1 reason I see for PM job searches that are stalling out.

Why Another PM Certification Won’t Fix Your Job Search (and What Will)

Hear me when I say: you absolutely, positively DO NOT need another PM course or certification to get hired. In this episode, I break down why certifications feel productive during a job search, but often act as expensive and time-consuming procrastination. I explain what hiring managers actually care about, why experience beats credentials every single time, and how focusing on the wrong gap can waste so much time. I also walk through how to reframe your experience, even if you haven't had a formal PM title, so you can position yourself as the obvious choice for the right roles. If you’ve been telling yourself, “I’ll start applying once I get this one certification” this is your gentle (but direct) wake-up call.

How to Shorten Your PM Job Search

Most PM job searches take longer than they should. Not because of the "bad" market, or because you're unqualified... but because you're not clearly articulating your value. In this episode, I share the top way you can set yourself up to shorten your PM job search by getting clear early: on your positioning, your unique value, and the story you’re telling recruiters and hiring managers.  I also share a real client story about a PM who landed an offer in just 29 days after starting to apply with their SPRINT resume - a direct result of tightening their job search strategy and positioning.  If you're thinking about kicking off a job search, set yourself up for success right from the start. Your future self will thank you!
