Ace Director/ Senior Manager/ VP Job Interview & Career




Ace Director/ Senior Manager/ VP Job Interview & Career


Hello, and welcome to the course.

How would you hire a manager, coach a manager, grow a manager, promote a manager, fire a manager, do reorgs, handle conflicts and politics?

Let’s call this role of managing managers as M2. Different companies give it different titles such as Senior Manager/ Manager of managers/ Head/ Director/ or VP for a startup.


If you’re applying for an M2 job, either for an engineering role or non-tech role, they’ll likely ask you these behavioral questions.

If you are a manager wanting to grow into M2 or if you’re already an M2 that are facing these challenges, you'll need to handle these challenges well in order to be successful.


Solving these challenges is very important during both interview and career. In today's world of remote hiring and cultural conflicts, behavioral challenges are more difficult but more critical for companies.


Meantime, the M2 job and career is very different from M1’s. In comparison to M1, an M2 needs to evolve the organization to deliver a larger vision for the department, to align strategies across upper executives and other department heads, to solve escalated challenges that your M1s cannot handle, and also to set an example of leadership model for M1s, just to name a few.


As a result your M1 experience is not enough at the M2 level. You can ace all the M1 challenges but still fail the M2 interview or career. You don't want to use free-form ad-hoc actions to respond to those challenges. You need a structured system and methodology to guide you to navigate through them.


This course enables you to use the minimal time to prepare for M2 interview questions or career challenges, in a systematic way. Based on my 18 years of experience in top software companies/ institutes, 11 years in technical management, 4 and half years as a director, I have accumulated the methodologies to tackle these challenges.


I’ve selected a set of most common challenges in the form of "How would you..." questions, so you can use this course as a dictionary to look up for the solution to a specific question.


If you haven’t taken my other course for M1, which is called ‘Ace manager job interview & career’, then I recommend you to take that course first, so you build a foundation for this M2 course.


Hope you use this course to achieve a high ROI in advancing your career!
