The following is a conversation with Ananya Vats, a Product Manager at Google currently working on Google Maps experiences. She has previously worked on Storefront Search and Recommendations at Swiggy and started her career at Microsoft working on Microsoft Search, Assistance, and Intelligence. We talked about high-level details of a PM’s job, how to look for unexpressed user needs, second-order effects, and how to get good at simulating them, and a lot more. Hope you like it!
