Experience level: VP of Product
Alisher has helped clients get into these companies:
I'm the guy on the other side of your PM interview. I've screened thousands of resumes and interviewed hundreds of candidates at WhatsApp and as a VP of Product & Design at an edtech startup. I know why most people get passed on in case study, product sense, and execution-focused interviews. Let's fix that.
