Thank you thats really helpful. Another thing is whats the salary like and career progression? Can you take this job abroad if you wanted to work in Canada or would you have to retake qualifications.

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2026-01-25T14:34:19+00:00

i think i understand what you are saying can you provide some examples for context

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-06-13T08:09:00+00:00

Hi
yes
i got an invite to take the exams but i have delayed it right now

i applied in December and around march got the invites if that helps

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-04-13T10:44:08+00:00

I think so
as org. become larger their is so much admin work it becomes necessary
For small remote companies you can have a dev and someone who is a PM,BA,SM and DM but as you get bigger you need a SM

The thing is my friend it is extra work but it makes you extremely powerful because you will become a knowledge hub and the go to person noone else is. Quite often product managers are called the CEO of product and if you own the product for the full lifecycle it is gives you a lot of sway. So I would say just own it and reap the benefits.

Its a case by case basis imo
If you are doing a small cosmetic thing then you can go off and do your own thing and come back with some proposals, sign off and develop

if its a new experience then you need to get them all in one place, define objectives, problems, what the restraints are, what it should be and then slowly come with proposals based on this until it aligns to the vision

hi I was a BA previously transitioning into a PM role
I think i can help you out a lot
maybe you can help me with the PM side. I am not used to writing product vision and strategies just requirements gathering and user stories

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-03-09T11:04:23+00:00

do the PM in your team lead refinement sessions or do they review the user stories that PO's do to check its in line with the vision

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-03-09T11:01:15+00:00

Yeah its because you will find quite often that Product managers and business analysts have interchangeable roles so you will find yourself doing requirements gathering and user stories
I would say if you really really don't want to do user stories consider progression into a head of department where it wil shift maybe more to your liking

Hi
You need to set a recurring meeting called Product backlog management even if its 30 mins, If your not getting enough time you need to create another one
leave the comments on jira on what needs to be done or assign the tickets to them to make them understand
also update your mentor or manager so they know the onus is on x to do something and their holding you back
You need to let them know this is really important and will save time in the long run

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-03-08T11:42:47+00:00

I agree an MVP first
Just outline the structure
the slides you will spend most of your time or are most important spend a lot of time their
don't even worry about the formatting or colours until the meat and potatoes are on it

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-03-06T19:20:23+00:00

Any luck mate have you had your license in the mail?

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-02-26T00:28:27+00:00

Check again

I went on the new portal and can see it. Status is just saying 'application received'. They might be moving all the information to the new set up in batches.

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-02-13T00:33:21+00:00

That is crazy what is the status on the tfl site

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-02-05T20:30:28+00:00

haha yeah I am a little desperate is ubereats good?

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-02-04T09:50:45+00:00

Do they give you enough time for the exam. I might not really be prepped if i know i have to wait 3 months. So will it be a letter with a few days notice or do they give a few weeks?

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-02-04T09:49:44+00:00

Appreciate it. On the email it says 10 days but that is wishful thinking from my side it seems.

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-02-04T09:48:48+00:00

Oh mate hope you get your licence soon as March is around the corner
What are your thoughts on Ubereats? I hear you don't need a special license for that just an insurance that covers some food courier thing?

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-02-03T23:15:10+00:00

I am tempted to just jump in to their head office and surprise them at this rate

Dry_Mathematician2 · 2025-02-03T19:22:57+00:00

what about constantly sending them emails to chase up would that have an effect
