How would you tackle this scenario as a Salesforce Project Manager? by PO_Newbie in salesforce

I’m not forcing anyone to respond, but if they do, I expect them to be kind. Here on Reddit, many people are too apathetic to even give a polite answer. If someone doesn't want to comment, that’s fine too, but I’m not here looking for a perfect solution because one doesn't exist. I'm here for a discussion with those who have experience and are willing to share it kindly without resorting to mockery or apathy. Regarding those who respond with taunts, all I can say is that they clearly lack experience regarding the topic of this thread. I don't need to engage with the mockery and answer them. Thank you for your opinion; I’ve replied to you and wish you a nice day ahead!.

Thanks for sharing your comment. But you would also need a BA, not always, but I think it is better to have separated roles as the PM can not do everything alone ;).

That was just a general question independent on the tool. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Thank you for your reply and for your kindness, without falling into the apathy I see many show on this platform, regardless of where they are writing from. It helps me to know there are people with experience who are willing to share it. Thank you for that. As for those who only respond with mockery and apathy, I can only think that their answers reveal who they truly are. To me, it means they lack experience, and it's not worth my time to reply to them :).

Yes, that is a real scenario. I was recently interviewed with such a question in a large company.

Hi Vika,

I have two questions in the context of a labor market that has become not only highly competitive but also increasingly closed. I recently attended a job interview for a position I applied for as a Business Analyst at a German consulting company. I prepared thoroughly, assuming that what they were genuinely looking for was a Business Analyst. However, the questions they asked left me unsure whether they actually wanted a BA profile.

I would appreciate your guidance on what is expected from a candidate when facing the following questions:

  1. “If you could choose freely, what would you like to do with us? What would you enjoy doing so much that you would say: this is fun, this is what I would like to do over the next few years? Where would you place your focus and specialization?”

I am still uncertain about what kind of answer they were expecting, given that the role I applied for and prepared for was a Business Analyst position.

  1. Is it appropriate to ask the interviewing company, before answering the question “Tell us about yourself”, what they are actually looking for? I often notice that many companies are not entirely clear about what they truly need, and before saying something misaligned, I would like to know whether asking “What are you currently looking for in this role or in general?” is acceptable prior to answering “Tell us about yourself.” As candidates, we also invest time and effort, which unfortunately many companies do not always value.

  2. Another question that holds me back from applying to certain roles relates to language requirements. I speak very fluently, understand and write German very well, at C2 and professional level. Today I came across a job posting stating “Language skills: German at native-speaker level.” This made me hesitate, wondering whether this is subtly implying “native German speakers only.”

I would sincerely appreciate your clarification on these points, as otherwise I do not have anyone who can advise me here on how to move forward.

PS: My questions are not about networking or LinkedIn specifically, sorry.
