Frequently asked questions about hiring your next product manager

Key skills include strategic thinking, data analysis, communication, leadership, prioritization, and problem-solving. They should also have a good understanding of user experience, market research, and basic technical concepts.

While a deep technical background isn’t always necessary, a basic understanding of technology is important. The level of technical knowledge required can vary depending on the product. More important is the ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical team members.

A Product Manager is responsible for the strategy, roadmap, and feature definition of a product. A Project Manager, on the other hand, is responsible for planning, executing, and finalizing projects according to strict deadlines and within budget. While there can be some overlap, Product Managers are more focused on the “what and why” of the product, while Project Managers concentrate on the “how and when” of its delivery.

Ask them to walk you through a prioritization exercise. Provide a list of potential features and ask them to prioritize them, explaining their reasoning. Look for their ability to consider factors like business value, user needs, effort required, and strategic alignment.

A good Product Manager should be comfortable working with data to inform decisions. They should be able to analyze user behavior, market trends, and product performance metrics. Experience with tools like Google Analytics, SQL, or data visualization software is beneficial.

While industry experience can be valuable, it’s not always necessary. More important are transferable skills like user empathy, strategic thinking, and the ability to quickly learn and adapt. A fresh perspective from a different industry can sometimes lead to innovative solutions.

A Product Manager should be involved throughout the development process, from ideation to launch and beyond. They should work closely with development teams to ensure the product vision is realized, participate in sprint planning and reviews, and be available to clarify requirements and make decisions.

Ask for examples of how they’ve incorporated customer feedback into their products. Look for experience with user research methods, their approach to gathering and analyzing customer data, and how they balance user needs with business objectives.

Ask them about their process for developing a product strategy. Have them discuss how they would approach entering a new market or how they would respond to a new competitor. Look for their ability to consider multiple factors, think long-term, and align product decisions with overall business goals.
