How Much Do Product Managers Earn In India & US?

Product management is probably one of the most powerful career paths for people working in the corporate world. We use tens and hundreds of products everyday that influence the decision of millions worldwide. A Facebook or an Instagram becomes addictive because product managers put in hours of work in developing features. So, it doesn’t come as a surprise that they would be the ones walking away with heavy salaries during the placements. But, how much do they actually make in both India and abroad? Sarah Gajbhiye answers the question in this video today in another episode of Basics of MBA.

Identify Your “Why” - Saumya's Grit Towards Achieving Her Dream Career In FMCG

Literally anyone who has even come in brief contact with me would know my passion for marketing. I have always dreamt of working for brands that touch people in their everyday lives and in that way get closer to people, understand their problems and come up with solutions to really create an impact through my actions. It was a dream I saw when I was 12 years old and I feel so fortunate and grateful to have had the platform to realise it.

IIM Shillong Summer Internship Diaries 2021 | Finance- Part 2

Hardik Goyal, DE Shaw Prep: Despite your best preparation, you may inevitably end up confused. And that is perfectly acceptable. It can be extremely daunting to not know something despite reading up everything you possibly can. At one point, I had gone through hundreds of pages of technical textbooks to learn about a specific industry related to the project, and yet I could not definitively predict a variable. That’s alright: don’t fear it.

IIM Shillong Summer Internship Diaries 2021 | Finance-Part 1

Saakshi Malpani, YES Bank Prep: My approach was first to start reading about project deliverables, not just in YES Bank's context but from a mindset of how a full-time banker would understand what needs to be done. Industry analysis via various research reports/ insights, RBI website for the current financial position of banks, analysts call transcripts of different private and global banks, is an excellent source of understanding Indian and Global trends in the banking space. Given the background of my project, I even read about trade relations with certain countries, which helped me identify key business sectors and construct a geography-specific CRM. It helped me understand my project deliverables better and benchmark industry best practices to suggest feasible solutions.

Sandra Anil, Deloitte Prep: Over the few months leading to the internship, I contacted a few alums from our institute who had also interned with Deloitte in the past, to understand the nature of work and how best I could prepare myself. The internship kick-started with a jam-packed induction week. The induction week encompassed sessions on consulting skills such as Storyboarding and Research Methodologies. The sessions were conducted by various senior practitioners in Deloitte and in addition, each team was also assigned a practitioner as a mentor for the Case Study Simulation. This provided a stellar platform for us to interact with other practitioners across the firm.

Hitanksha Jain, Pepsico Prep: I have grown up loving and being the biggest advocate for PepsiCo products. So, an opportunity to intern at PepsiCo India as a Sales intern was surreal. This was my first stint at an FMCG company in the sales division. My internship started from home, just like most others, but it didn’t come in the way of what my team had to offer in terms of learning, interaction, and exposure.

Arzoo Kamrah, Pidilite Prep: With a lot of enthusiasm, zeal, and mental stamina coupled with an absence of apprehensions about the drawbacks that a virtual work from home summer internship might bring, I dressed up in perfect formals- an ironed shirt and my favourite set grey coat and trousers for the Inductions.
