Product Gym (PG) by Elevate is an online technical skills platform offering a 12-week product management (PM) career coaching program and a 15-week QA (SDET) skills training program. PG members get access to fully remote courses, which offer flexible start times, a comprehensive curriculum, and career support to help members secure their target Product or QA job. Both tracks can be taken flexibly, at the same or different times. On average, PG members spend 7 – 10 hours per week on both tracks combined. Once joined, members have access to all of PG's classes, community resources, and support for life.
Product Gym by Elevate’s QA program is suitable for people of all experience levels. To enroll, book a discovery call with the admissions team. The Product Management program is more selective and accepts only about 10% of applicants. Those interested in the Product Management program should be interested in breaking into PM or securing a better PM role; have a strong work ethic and ability to problem-solve; be able to follow advice from coaches; and be excited to be part of the PG community.
Product Gym by Elevate’s Job Placement Assistance Program for the QA program is provided through PG partners and lasts for about 4 months. In this program, members will receive a weekly live session breakdown, with the added benefit of having all sessions recorded, allowing participants to learn at their own pace. PG’s Product Management program includes placement — members of the program can secure 3-5 offers in as soon as 45 days.
Payment plans are available to Product Gym by Elevate members.

Work hard, get results
Product Gym makes you work your butt off. I had so many interviews. The most I had was 9 in a week. They completely revamp your resume and provide a program for you to get the product manager job that you want. It's super intense but super fulfilling. - ConnorGraduate • Product Management • New York CityMar 04, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I was hesitant but Product Gym ended up being the best investment in myself. They really teach you how to present the skillsets you have framed around product management.
It’s a gym though, so you need to work hard to get results. You get access to rich resources, instructors, and a like minded community in the same journey willing to help. Courses highlight not only product management principals but how that can be tangibly be applied within the interview process.
Within the first 30 days I had the opportunity of 50+ companies reaching out for interviews and two offers. - A AlexStudent • Product Management • New York CityFeb 18, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great program to get to the next level of your career!
By following the PG process, I was seeing five to ten interview requests a day within the first four weeks of joining. I really enjoyed going through the branding exercise where they made sure my LinkedIn, cover letter, and resume all were cohesive. I feel like the money is worth just the resume revamp itself! The community is very supportive. I had no qualms about reaching out to current students and alumni about interview advice.

Product Manager
The biggest difference I noticed in working with the team at Product Gym was that they were committed to me crossing the goal line with all that I learned, whereas the competition is satisfied simply with sharing information. Motivation, and determination are instilled in the students, and they have a track record that proves their strategies work. - NehaFeb 09, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Definitely Worth The Investment
I am someone who has had the skills but no organization in my Product Career. After joining Product Gym it really helped me focus on my key skills, provided coaching and support as well as instilling confidence in me that I had lost for a while. Anyone who just needs that push to get you over the edge and fulfill on all the promises they give you from the beginning. Product Gym is that. - Olga NProduct Owner • Graduate • New York CityNov 25, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I generate 14 interviews per week (I even started declining some and choosing only the best of the best, since I’m generating so many responses on my applications).

I feel like I’m not alone on this hard journey and that I’m supported by the community. The curriculum and classes are also very helpful. My favorite part is that each class is led by a professional who is really an expert in this particular field and can answer any of my questions and can explain how I can use all this information in the interview. Highly recommend the program for those who are in the product management job search! - Jason N.Graduate • Product Management • New York CityNov 13, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

It’s like having a mentor through the process, except you have a whole team of mentors guiding you.

I am incredibly thankful to the whole team. - VictorGraduateJun 29, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
An incredible program that actually works to bring you to PM offers!
Although I had a couple of years of PM experience was, I found that it's not enough to be an experienced PM to ace an interview. I joined Product Gym to learn how to play and win this "interview game," as I haven't been interviewing for a while. It was my best investment decision I made for my career advancement! It allowed me to learn the skill of interviewing itself. Product Gym teaches you what really works and what doesn't to get a PM job.

It allowed me to learn the skill of interviewing itself. Product Gym teaches you what really works and what doesn't to get a PM job.
I landed several PM offers after 3 months of training and interviewing while on a full-time job.
First, the curriculum covers all essential PM topics and even more. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, friendly, and willing to help. Second, coaching calls are extremely helpful. Oliver, who conducts calls twice a week, answers questions related to interviews. That is an awesome resource for preparing appealing stories for behavioral questions, which you will get a lot during interviews. Third, community support is tremendous! There several channels in Mattermost, where members share useful materials, exchange their experience, and help each other!
I was really skeptical about signing in, but now I definitely recommend Product Gym to everyone who is looking for a PM job! - RobertProduct Manager • Student • Product Management • New York CityJun 24, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

A strategy that actually works
The Product Gym strategy actually works! Before I attended the classes I was on my own, backed with a traditional resume and interview answers, it just didn't work.

Their strategy is intense and a real grind but you will see results in only a few weeks. You will get the experience needed to land your dream job. I was HIGHLY skeptical of the process, this only held me back. I spoke to past students and the instructors and decided to give their method a shot. Within a few weeks I was able to land an offer!
Pros
- Great instructors - Large community that you can lean on - Guidance throughout the process -Resume help, interviewing prep. help with salary negotiation
Cons
- The PG pitch is very sales heavy - The method is a grind, but they offer a job application assistant not included in the package - I was not aware of the price sharing that rolled out the month after I signed up - HMGraduate • Product Management • New York CityFeb 27, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

My favorite pros:
- community that holds you accountable
- lifetime membership - once your'e in, you can come back to their program as long as you want every time you need a new PM job
- ISA program - NO UPFRONT payment required, you just give them 10% of your salary if/when you land a job. That way it's risk free. But if you think you're likely to get a job, I would do the regular fee because it's probably a 50% cost savings over the ISA approach
You have to put in the work but if you do what they say, you'll get the job! - SeanStudent • Product Management • New York CityFeb 03, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Product Gym is the bomb!
There is no better resource for finding a product manager (PM) position than Product Gym (PG)! Within the time span of two months, PG helped me transform my outlook on the job search, how I see and talk about myself, and filled me in on all the fundamentals for what it means to be a PM. Oh, and I was offered a job at a SaaS company, an industry I had never worked in before. If you're hesitating about whether you should sign up or not, stop. Sign up now!
