Guidance on how to prepare for TPM Roles
I am trying to break into FAANG as Product Manager and was hoping to get some guidance on Taro but I do not find any material dedicated to this role. Wondering if you have covered it differently.
A suggestion - On Chrome, if I am logged into Taro and open a new tab, I do not automatically logged in. I am not sure if its my machine or the website. I use Windows OS.
Regards,
RG

We don't have as many dedicated resources for Technical Program Manager (TPM) or Product Manager (PM) roles, but many of the concepts in the job searching course will apply. The course is Ace Your Tech Interview, and I'd recommend going through the section "Get Interviews" in particular.
If there are specific questions you have about those jobs, please post and hopefully someone can provide some insight :)
The repeated login problem sounds annoying -- could you share that to team@jointaro.com or post in the Taro Premium Slack? (#taro-app-discussion-and-feedback)

One more piece of advice: have you tried to look at a few TPM job descriptions to glean the common nouns and verbs in the expectations? This exercise is usually quite helpful because it can enable you to come up with a list of signals that interviewers look for. Along with some tactical prep, these signals can help you construct strong stories for behavioral interviews as well, making you a stronger candidate.
