@Sid Arora Got it, it makes sense totally. Just a question on your second point, I could have added impact and made my how a little stronger, just that it would have made the cover letter a little lengthier than it is. That was the trade off I made, to keep it eye pleasing in terms of length and have less cognitive load in mind so that my cover letter doesnt get skipped or pushed in the "ill see it later" queue. What do you suggest in this case?

@Sid Arora Thanks for this validation, this helps a lot as we never get any yes/no kind of answers in this industry. Glad that am a part of this community and learning from you.

Day 1 - Assignment submission
Share the 3 things that help you standout as a PM job applicant. Feel free to use these thinking prompts: 1. What skills and qualities do I have as a professional that are important for a PM role? Which of them are not visible through my resume? 2. What values do I have as a person that make me a great fit for PM roles? 3. What can I learn about the company/role/hiring manager, that will help me make my application better? How can I find this information? 4. What unique experiences do I have that will make me stand out?

Core values in me that help me stand out as a PM: 1. Professional Experience: My analytics and coding background makes me a strong PM. With coding knowledge I always have a fair idea while thinking of solutions/features in terms of what's realistically feasible and being analytical helps me form really well informed decisions and in exploring problem space. On top of it my experience in multiple startups, different phases (PMF, 0-1 and scaling) and multiple domain is a plus. 2. Personality: Being a national athlete I have certain qualities that makes me standout i.e delayed gratification, leadership quality (captain of team), agile by nature, composed and humble both in wins and loses, making decision with confidence, believe in making decision and moving forward rather than procrastinating. 3. One of the unique experience I have is by certain incidents and also my decisions I have 5 companies in my resume in 5 years and they somehow gave me; Firstly, exposure to 2 domains that are ecommerce and edtech. Secondly, all phases of a startup 0-1 stage, PMF finding stage and scaling. Lastly, I have worked in totally data driven organization with quick experimentations happening and I have worked in totally intuition based startups. So this experience has made me more of a Swiss knife, I can judge situation of a team/organisation and make decisions and adjust myself to make the best in the situation.
