Akshay Gupta
Product Manager @
Placement with 237% Salary Hike
I was looking for guidance and a support system to pivot into the job industry. A call with Talvinder made me join the course. I feel great about the results as well as the journey.
My favorite part of the course was “Feedback on case studies and personalized guidance”. I don’t think I could have achieved the same result in interviews if I was hearing the cookie cutter suggestions.

Sr. Product Manager @
Transitioned from Product Manager to Sr. Product Manager
Case studies and the reading material around Product Management is the core of the program. Adding mentor conversations on the top of it makes it one of the best programs out there.
Working with a very experienced industry mentor builds a lot of confidence. Would totally recommend to anyone trying to enter the world of product management or trying to sharpen their PM toolkit.

The course is designed with a case study point of view so that you get to know the real-life examples of what you will be solving in bigger companies. Our mentor was a very experienced and senior product professional from Microsoft.
Thanks to the team at PL and our Mentor for helping me crack the interview and supporting me in my career. Anyone who is looking for a career in product management or confused like me in the career Pragmatic is the solution!
Mohit Kothari
Associate Product Manager @
Placement with 50% Salary Hike
I wanted to transition into a Product Manager role and so thought Pay After Placement and 1:1 Mentorship by PL will be the best to get a breakthrough.
Now I am confident enough to approach any problem with a structured path. The solution is still not sure but at least now I have developed a habit to approaching a problem and thinking in a structured way.
The course and support provided by Pragmatic Leaders is amazing and the mentors have very good profiles.
Nikhil Kumbhar

Placed as Associate Product Manager at Stones2Milestones
My eagerness to learn made me join the PM course at PL. I feel happy about my decision now, and more confident about going forward.
My mentor helped me in all steps of my transition journey. Mentorship was my favorite part of the course which made the course much more effective.

You start applying for jobs, appearing for interviews, and so on. As we go along, we keep on refining these skills. The phase is intensive where we expect students to be extremely proactive in applying and seeking mentor’s help to crack the interview.
You do not have to pay any fee upfront. We get paid only when you get your desired outcome via Deferred Payment Plan. We only request for a fully refundable deposit of INR 36,500 to reserve your seat as we have limited seats. This is adjusted in the final dues. Once you achieve your outcome, you pay us INR 3,70,000.
