Instead Let me explain what we are looking for without mentioning Product (non-) Sense.

We value the following traits in Product Managers:
– Ability to decrypt and empathize with users needs
– Understanding of data, statistics and optimizations
– Familiarity with how tech products are built

What do we mean:
\u2753 — Ability to decrypt and empathise with users’ needs:
\u2705-> we want a PM who understands that people don’t buy Rolex watches because they want an accurate read of the time
\u2705-> someone who knows that it is 10 times more painful for a user to make 2 clicks instead of one for the same outcome

\u2753 — Understanding of data, statistics, and optimisations:
\u2705-> we want a PM who can write SELECT * FROM the_correct_table JOIN reference_table ON id=same_id WHERE field = what_we_need
\u2705-> someone who understands that there could be no difference between a test and control group with 10% difference in conversion on average

\u2753 — Familiarity with how tech products are built
\u2705-> we want a PM who knows that adding a filter to a page is harder than changing the colour of a button but will often have less impact
\u2705-> someone who can cut the requirements down to the minimum amount of work to validate a hypothesis<\/p>\r\n
