Introduction
Hi, I am Yogesh Sheoran. I began my professional journey as a Quality Analyst, where I developed a strong understanding of software testing and product development processes. As I gained experience, I realized that I wanted to look beyond testing and play a more strategic role in shaping products, understanding customer needs, and contributing to business decisions. This growing interest in the broader product lifecycle motivated me to explore Product Management as the next step in my career.
Reason to Upskill
My primary goal was to transition from Quality Analysis to Product Management. I wanted to develop a stronger product mindset along with the business knowledge and practical skills required to succeed in a product-focused role. Since Product Management involves understanding the complete product lifecycle, I knew I needed a structured learning path to bridge the gap between my existing experience and the expectations of the new role. The certification helped me build that foundation and gave me a clearer understanding of the responsibilities and skills required to make a successful domain transition.
Choosing Simplilearn
I chose Simplilearn because I was looking for a program that combined structured learning with practical exposure. The opportunity to learn from experienced faculty and work on projects made the program particularly relevant to my career goals. I also valued the focus on applying concepts rather than limiting the learning experience to theory, as this allowed me to develop skills that I could directly carry into my transition to Product Management.
