I think the paid content is simply not worth it. I challenge anyone to give me a reasons to buy it. There is a lot of great content for free. Instead of high quality mock interviews and answers you get some junior people who act like their are right hand of Elon Musk. Big egos, not much input. One of the other reasons I bought the subscription was to have access to great quality video answers to most popular interview questions. In the free version you get to see one or two good videos, thinking that if you pay for the subscription you get access to even more videos like that. THIS IS NOT THE CASE. Its border line SCAM. The quality of these videos is so bad. People take 40 minutes to answer "tell me about yourself" questions. Its like they took the best 3 videos, presented to get you to buy while the long tail is just terrible. Not to mention the peer interview mock matching either doesn't work, or people are either junior or not prepared. To sum up: - poor quality of Mock Interviews and Video answers-> the answers are poorly structured, too long, with no good feedback at the end offer. It may work for complete beginners but I just cannot picture this being useful for more senior folks - poor matching for mock interviews - > most of the time I cant find match or Im being matched with junior practitioners - poor quality of coaching options -> most of coaches I've got a chance to preview, performed rather poorly during the mock interviews, at least against what you would expect from someone positioning him/herself as a COACH looking to charge 200 USD per hour) Reco: Don't buy exponent. I've done my research, checked other sides. etc best I found and recommend is PMexercises by Bijan Shahrokhi. Good content, top quality mock interviews and great mock interviews partners. All of that for only 140 USD. Check first on youtube his videos and judge for yourself.

I find these solutions architect courses to be more of a book I can get at the library for free. Very limited when it comes to valuable information. No videos of interviews. Not delivering whats promised in the course. I am very disappointed.

@stervyc This is ingenious! Wish I had a resource like this when I was prepping for PM interviews. Looking forward to more content in the Simulator!

PM Lesson has a robust product management interview curriculum that covers a wide range of topics. It taught me that product interviews require a methodical approach and also demonstrated how to apply that approach over a rich set of practice questions.

The other half of the product, mock interviews with Stephen Cognetta and other PMs from great companies, takes PM Lesson to the next level. PM Lesson interviews are delivered by experienced, patient interviewers, who really set you up for success. I've recommended PM Lesson to my friends in the past and they all found tremendous value in the mock interviews.

I love the idea. Games make things easier to learn! Great for abstract things like interviews. Just like how great investment games are at teaching you how investing works. Why 'tell' when you can 'show'? Great work.

Main feedback: 1. Video is very amateur and script mistakes 2. What can I learn from the steps I took? It took me X steps to get to the answer. What is the average # of steps that people took in order to find the solution? 3. More explanation of why I should have started with X instead of Y. Using this data to improve my PM knowhow. 4. Just saying that after slicing the data no correlation was found doesn't really help. What else could be added here? There is more stuff I could write. Let me know if you need some user for research.
