" The 'Ace the TPM interview" course by Mario Gerard really helped me succeed in my TPM interview at one of the FAANG companies.
Mario covers everything from project & program management to system design to behavioral interviews. Needless to say that the material is exhaustive and should not be seen as a silver bullet.
But, if you spend appropriate time prepping using this material and do some mock interviews, you will surely ace any TPM interview.
I highly recommend the course even if you may not be interviewing in the near future, but want to make yourself a better TPM in your current or future role".

"I found Mario's 'Ace The TPM Interview Program' at the perfect time during my job interview preparation. I was one week away from my interview with multiple topics to learn and revise and did not know where to start.
The course was so comprehensive which helped me grasp new concepts in a very short duration.

The passion that Mario has to help folks entering the world of technical program management is amazing. At the time where I felt stuck during my preparation and reached out to him on LinkedIn, he immediately responded with resources I could review.
Even now, after getting the job I go back to the course to review the topics that Mario has added to the program.
I would highly suggest this course to anyone who wants a quick Bootcamp on Technical Program Management starting from the basics to the deep end, it covers it all!".
