Ask HN: Are there recruiters for Product Managers?
1 point by bdickason on Nov 4, 2011 | hide | past | favorite
I'm a relatively successful (no huge wins but a couple acquisitions under my belt) product manager in NYC and have been looking for a new gig. The problem is, every single recruiter I've spoken to has no clue what a Product Manager is!!!

Usually conversations go like this: "So you're a developer?" "Ok, so you're a designer then?" "Oh you don't do either, so you're a project manager?"

I'm pretty sure noone knows what to do with Product Managers.

So I take my search to Hacker News. Are there Product-y recruiters that can help me find a tiny (2-5 person) company? Or am I stuck meeting with all of the people I know in tech? Surely there's a better way!
