What I valued most about working with Shishir was that he didn't just help me prepare for interviews — he helped me show up as a product leader. Early on, my answers had the right ingredients and Shishir worked with me on positioning, on shaping a clear narrative, and on making sure the impact of what I'd done actually registered with the person across the table. He also opened my eyes to a set of daily habits that quietly compound into executive presence. A few that have stuck with me: Using pauses with intent, instead of rushing to fill silence Moving between the strategic view and the specifics within a single answer Practicing answers enough that they feel natural — not memorized The behavioral mock interviews were where it all came together. Shishir doesn't run them as Q&A drills. He sets them up as real conversations and coaches you on creating moments where the interviewer can see exactly what you bring, rather than having to dig for it. None of this sticks without consistent practice and someone holding you to it. Shishir brought both — the product instincts of a senior leader and the accountability of a coach who actually expects you to show up week after week. For any PM working toward senior roles, he's the coach I'd point you to.

Shishir is an incredible career coach with a keen eye for the details needed to communicate your value. He played a key role in helping me clarify my strengths, refine my narrative, and significantly elevate my interview performance. What sets Shishir apart is his practical and personalized approach. He takes the time to understand your goals, experience, and aspirations, and then tailors his guidance to help you position yourself effectively. His ability to bring structure and logic to storytelling helped me articulate my experiences with clarity, confidence, and impact. Shishir ran multiple mock interviews with me, each followed by thoughtful, direct, and highly actionable feedback. His attention to detail and focus on continuous improvement helped me build confidence quickly and consistently perform at a higher level. More importantly, he doesn’t just prepare you for specific questions — he equips you with the mindset and adaptability to navigate any interview situation in real time. Beyond his technical expertise, Shishir is incredibly supportive, positive, and genuinely invested in your success. He strikes the perfect balance between being encouraging and pushing you to elevate your standards. My biggest win was not just landing a new role, but transforming how I show up as a product professional. If you’re looking for a coach who can help you refine your narrative, strengthen your interview presence, and unlock new opportunities, Shishir is someone you want in your corner. It was a pleasure working with him.

I worked with Sam and Shishir after suddenly being laid off. Through working with them, I was able to identify my target companies, position myself for my desired role, and prepare for interviews in a way that was calibrated with my target level. Through their help us able to successfully land a role as a staff product manager.

Working with Sam and Shishir helped me bring structure, clarity, and confidence to my PM interview preparation. I came in with strong product and cybersecurity experience, but needed help turning that experience into concise, senior-level stories that clearly showed product judgment, strategy, leadership, and measurable impact. What stood out was how practical and personalized their coaching was. They helped me pressure-test my answers, simplify complex stories, and communicate with stronger executive presence. I’m grateful for their guidance and would highly recommend them to anyone serious about leveling up their PM career.

Shishir gave me exactly what I needed: honest, tough-love feedback that I wasn't getting anywhere else. I had the right stories, but my confidence was tanking my delivery. He pinpointed it immediately and armed me with real mindset tools to fix it. Within a week, my whole approach transformed. That's the power of great coaching, he stopped me from spinning my wheels and got me moving fast.

Sam and Shishir are extremely articulate and hardworking. They are two coaches you will want to listen to, even as they (gently) deliver the bad news about your latest mock interview. In my experience they are both coaches who listen well and give tailored advice. I never felt with either of them that I was getting the kind of rehashed generic advice that can be common in the coaching space. It was real feedback on the current conversation, from people dedicated to the practice and to teaching. I never left a session without feeling like the bar had been kindly raised. You will get great coaching here!

Working with Shishir genuinely changed the way I show up in interviews. I wasn’t planning to do coaching at all, and he is the one who convinced me to give myself that chance. What I appreciate most is how he never let me minimize my experience. He pushed me to bring my whole self forward, to stop cutting short the impact of what I have actually done, and to express my story with clarity and confidence. It helped me recognize my own value and show it fully. That mindset shift is something I will carry with me well beyond any single conversation.

When I first connected with Shishir, I was in a place many experienced Product Managers find themselves in - I had solid experience, meaningful accomplishments, and strong instincts, but I lacked clarity on how to position myself, how to value my experience, and how to approach my search in a structured way. What changed from our very first meeting was clarity. Shishir helped me see my professional worth more objectively. He gave me a framework to think about my career - not just the next job, but where I should realistically be aiming based on my experience, strengths, and long-term potential. That perspective was incredibly motivating because it replaced uncertainty with direction. What stood out most about his coaching style was his honesty. He never sold fluff. He never painted an unrealistic picture of the market or made empty promises. In fact, his message was simple: the market is tough, but what we can control is how we prepare, how we position ourselves, and how we stand out. That grounded, no-nonsense guidance is rare - and exactly what serious professionals need. The biggest hurdle he helped me overcome was mindset. More than resume reviews or interview tactics, he helped me move from doubt and scattered effort to confidence and structured execution. That shift is something I likely would not have achieved alone. My biggest win from working with him has been clarity, conviction, and a much stronger professional narrative - knowing what I bring to the table, how to communicate it, and how to pursue opportunities with intent rather than guesswork. If you're looking for honest, practical, no-BS career guidance from someone who genuinely wants to help you elevate, Shishir is exactly that person. There’s a reason so many people trust him — he tells you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear.
