Before: Head Product Marketing at a start-up company
Impact of the current pandemic
After: Senior Director of Product Marketing at Constant Contact
Nancy is an empathic coach that genuinely cares about her students, either fine-tuning experienced product leaders or accelerating the learning curve for first-time product managers. I was impressed by Nancy’s pro-active style and openness to providing personalized advice. Besides, she is a fun colleague to be around in thought leadership webinars or product management videos. For those in search of a more meaningful position, I strongly suggest working with Nancy as your product management - competitive edge coach.

Nancy’s Bootcamp is helpful during my PM job hunting process. I especially appreciate three parts that Nancy provided me: interview preparation, PM routine exposure, and confidence. First, she provided great tips for my resume and networking scripts. Her interview templates were extremely helpful for my interviews. Second, it is great to be systematically trained by a real product director and exposed to the PM job routines before stepping into this field. Lastly, she gave us great support and confidence during our job-hunting process. I highly recommend Nancy’s Bootcamp.
AFTER: Became a Technical Program Manager at Amazon
Nancy is a very knowledgeable mentor. She teaches only practical lessons in her course. She not only taught me how to best present myself in an interview (which later led to a full-time offer), but helped me to change my mindset and become a more confident person. She has tons of experience helping people from different backgrounds and has tailored answers to all your questions. The content in her course also helps me with my day to day work. I decided to take her boot camp even after getting an offer just to learn more from her. I strongly recommend her course.

Computer Science internship experience

Nancy's course provides a good perspective on how to approach product management interviews as well as product management in practice. She is a very responsible tutor, and her one on ones are very helpful for setting career goals and strategies. The feedback she gives during mock interviews is very insightful as well.

Troy
Part-time MBA Student at Chicago Booth
Looking for product manager position
BEFORE:Started his job hunting journey 6 months ago with little progress
AFTER:Now Troy is ready to start his career in a company that would like to offer him perminant residency sponsorship right away
Nancy’s Bootcamp is designed specifically for aspiring product managers like me, it contains lots of PM resume tips, PM skill sets, mock interviews, etc. Before this bootcamp, I barely knew how to prepare for pm interviews and how to answer product questions. Nancy helped me a lot during the bootcamp. I got many interview opportunities even during the pandemic and I can confidently answer those interview questions. Thanks to Nancy, now I'm ready to start a career in my dream company!

Alice
Was confusing of career path
Before: MBA Marketing at Columbia University
After: Product Marketing Manager position at Linkedin
I am very grateful and fortunate to meet Nancy that I was confusing and considering which career path to choose from Consulting vs Tech. I followed Nancy's guidance. I passed my pre-final round PM interview with a big tech firm after 1 month of joining the Bootcamp. Nancy really inspired and encouraged me ranging from domain knowledge, network strategy, how to get the offer in the most efficient way! I always came to Nancy for advice whenever I was facing key career decision making even though I've already graduated from the Bootcamp. She's being a true supporter when we were in the Bootcamp and beyond.

BEFORE: Always wanted to become a product manager but didn't know how to start
AFTER: She has successfully transitioned to PM
Nancy is amazing, She provides end-to-end coaching in finding a new job, something that we have been missing in Chicago Booth. She will tell you, why your resume does not receive a high response rate, how to fix it and what additional skills/certifications to receive. Nancy also has a huge network of hiring managers who she will refer you to and conduct mock interviews with you to prepare. I highly recommend her.

Anna Luo
Junior at Columbia University, majoring in Financial Engineering
No internship experience in the past
BEFORE: Sent out 40+ resumes during pandemic but only got 1 interview invitation
AFTER: 2 weeks after joining the bootcamp, Anna received her very first internship offer
Nancy helped me get my first internship in two weeks during the pandemic! Her networking strategies are SUPER helpful, something you cannot just learn out of yourself! I was struggling and sending out resumes everywhere on job websites without getting much response back. After 2 weeks of attending Nancy's bootcamp, I connected with my boss using Nancy's networking scripts and tips. Now I am the project manager in my company. Meeting Nancy and joining her Bootcamp was the worthiest thing I did during the quarantine.

RC
Received an offer from Amazon
BEFORE: Didn't know how to negotiate the offer and how much to ask for.
There were many red flags during the negotiation process
AFTER: In the end, with Nancy's consulting, RC received one of the largest offers from Amazon
Nancy is honestly invaluable — being able to agonize in front of a rational human being was incredibly helpful and clarifying. She really helped maximize my amazon offer and improved my negotiation skills dramatically.

Joined Nancy's Negotiation Workshop for career development purposes
BEFORE: Jackie didn't know how to say NO to her coworkers
AFTER: Now she learned to stand up for herself.
I attended Dr. Nancy Li’s Negotiation Power workshop which I found amazingly informative and helpful. It impacted me with new ways of thinking and new points of view for the mindset change. I enjoyed meeting the new professionals with the common or different concerns and interests to discuss and share the new insight and ideas. If you are Yes person, this workshop can help you change your mindset to make you wise and smart not only in the job search, offer negotiations, but also in the life and other opportunity negotiations. With the powerful negotiation skill set, you will find that this can help you effectively build up your confidence and widen the opportunities for the overall personal and career development. The workshop is so worthwhile for the time and effort you invested to perfect yourself.

Received a low-ball offer at first
Nancy helped her with offer negotiation
Annie's final offer provides a 40% rise comparing to the previous one
I received an offer from a company I really wanted to work with, however, the initial offer made me sad. Dr. Nancy Li helped me to turn it up with her knowledge of people's operations, psychologies, and the right mindset and skills of negotiation and communication. With her consulting, my final offer provides a significant rise compared to my previous. Dr. Nancy Li was very responsive, trustable and always hold me up during the negotiation process. What's more is that I can apply the philosophy/skills to other situations when collaborating with people and vendors, etc! If you are not comfortable with your offer as me and do not know what to do and how, Nancy is definitely the right person who can help! The whole consulting process completely worth the time and money to obtain so much precious knowledge and skills that not only benefit once but also long terms. If I have the opportunity, I would like to learn more by attending her classes later.

Participated in Nancy's Negotiation Workshop
Dr. Nancy is the most passionate, brave, intelligent woman I have ever met in my life, her story inspires me. In one of her negotiation workshop, she held my attention for the whole session. I learned a lot from her, also from the other attendees. Her workshop was based on abundant data and research, thoroughly organized with touching stories, interactive exercise and practical tips, which makes her workshop special and personal. You will not only learn negotiation skills from her workshop, but also you will gain a brand new understanding of people and mind on a deeper level, which will help you to achieve the success and happiness you want in your life.
