-------------------------
Matt Goff spent 15+ years in product management, most recently leading data and operations work in edtech, before deciding it was time for his next step: a Group Product Manager role.
In this conversation, Matt walks through his path from financial services into higher ed marketing, into edtech, and now into his new role at Frontline Education, where he's leading a team to modernize the absence and time product and integrate it across the broader product ecosystem.
He also gets honest about what the job search actually looked like, joining right before the holidays, underestimating how much reflection work was involved, balancing a full-time job and a toddler, and the almost 8 months it took from starting the process to accepting an offer.
We talk about:
* Why "the market's fine, I'm just missing a beat" was the real signal it was time to get support
* The four moments in the program that made the biggest difference โ clarifying his long-term direction, rebuilding his "tell me about yourself" story, and revamping his resume and LinkedIn
* What it actually felt like to go through a "flurry" of interviews after months of quieter progress
* How coaching that's done with you (not for you) changes how you show up in interviews
* His honest advice on who should or shouldn't join the program
If you're a product manager thinking about your next move and wondering whether a structured program is worth it, this one's worth the watch.
