The creator

Hi, I'm Madhav

Madhava Narayanan, Product leader, hiring manager, PM mentor

I am on a mission to empower Product Managers and aspiring PMs to think better, build better, and grow faster. Over the past 9+ years, I have been hiring and evaluating PM talent, and have personally helped 75+ product folks with resume reviews, case study prep, mock interviews, and career guidance.

Currently at Appian Corporation, I lead platform engineering product initiatives as SPM2, driving next-gen cloud capabilities that enhance scalability, reliability, and enterprise adoption.

The backstory

How it started

It started with a vacancy in my team. I posted about it on LinkedIn and got a flood of generic resumes with no context and no alignment to the role.

I had been advising people for years to tailor their resume and reach out with clarity. But nothing changed. So I built a Job Fit Check tool that compared their resume against the job description and generated a referral message. That way, they could see the gaps themselves and reach out properly.

It worked. Then I realized every product person faces the same challenge: no clear feedback, no way to know if their story is compelling, and no easy way to fix it. So I expanded it into ProductResume.

The problem

Why it exists

The problem

PM job seekers struggle with the basics: what to put in a resume, how to structure it, how to convey the right impact, which achievements matter for a specific role, how to fix gaps, and how to reach out to hiring managers. Feedback is either too vague (“add more metrics”) or too expensive ($200+/session coaches).

The solution

ProductResume answers all of these. It tells you what is working and what is not, shows you how to structure and convey impact, helps you tailor for specific roles, fixes your bullets with AI, and gives you a ready-to-send referral message. One place to go from resume draft to confident application.

Beyond the resume

Your resume is your interview prep

A resume is not just a document you submit. Companies like Amazon, Google, Meta, and Stripe run experience-based interviews where every question traces back to your resume. A clear, well-structured resume means confident answers. A vague one means struggling under pressure.

🎯

Powerful story

💬

Confident answers

When your bullets have real numbers and context, you can answer follow-ups without hesitation.

Strong summary

Your resume summary becomes your elevator pitch for networking, referrals, and interview intros.

Our approach

What makes it different

Built specifically for Product Managers and folks transitioning to Product. It understands PM career paths, seniority expectations, and what makes a resume strong versus generic.

Four dimensions (leadership, experience, domain, skills), weighted by seniority. It flags what actually hurts: AI-generated language, overclaimed impact, vague buzzwords, and process descriptions disguised as achievements. Then it tells you how to fix them.

For AI Product Managers, the tool goes further. It auto-detects AI PM signals in your resume and activates specialized evaluation: ML literacy detection (are your AI skills demonstrated or just listed?), uncertainty decision scoring, AI-specific metrics recognition, and antipattern flags for tool name-dropping and engineering cosplay. Scoring weights shift automatically — Skills & Tools gets higher weight when AI PM signals are detected, reflecting what AI PM roles actually demand.
