Like Product Management Short Course grad Giovanni Agramonte. He’s the embodiment of the drive and determination, the resolve and resilience, our alumni bring to the table day in and day out. We recently connected with Giovanni to get his unique insights on his own GA experience, along with his advice for anyone considering a career change. Check out some of the highlights…
How was your 足球竞彩网 Assembly experience, and what skills did you learn during your course that you use on the job now?
“The 足球竞彩网 Assembly product management course gave me a clear understanding of the end-to-end product development process, from ideation to execution. It was a rewarding experience, as it increased my awareness of the practical tools and frameworks I could apply immediately and sharpen my strategic thinking. The course also taught me to break down complex problems into manageable solutions, prioritize effectively, and communicate clearly with cross-functional teams. Tools like user research, road mapping, and agile methodology allowed me to become better at project management.”
Has your career significantly changed since taking our course, and what do you do now?
“Absolutely. The 足球竞彩网 Assembly course increased my level of confidence and enhanced my soft skills to transition from a field installation technician into a leadership role where I became a supervisor and then director of operations. Eventually, I co-founded multiple businesses focused on workplace technology integration, and today I’m COO of two companies in which I oversee operations, strategy, and team development.”
What are some of the top technical skills needed to succeed in your current industry?
“Technical is one thing—personally it’s helpful for an individual to have resilience and a proactive mindset. In my industry (AV integration focused on workplace technology and experiential environment), a solid grasp of emerging technologies—primarily everything audio and visual capture reproduction, automation, and control systems—is essential. Experience or understanding of existing audio and visual hardware is also important. As is learning about human behavior, which is key in this and every profession.”
What soft skills do you look for now when you hire or mentor junior talent?
“I value curiosity, adaptability, and a strong sense of accountability. People who are eager to learn, open to feedback, and willing to embrace challenges often excel. Emotional intelligence and clear communication are critical soft skills, as the most important superpower is to be a problem-solver, especially when navigating multiple environments.”
What interview or job search advice would you offer to career seekers and changers?
“Be intentional in your approach. Research the companies and roles you’re interested in and tailor your application to highlight the skills you have that align with their needs. During interviews, focus on storytelling—share examples of challenges you’ve overcome and the value you’ve brought to your previous roles. Lastly, stay consistent and keep learning—persistence pays off.”
Would you recommend taking a 足球竞彩网 Assembly course? And why?
“Absolutely. 足球竞彩网 Assembly courses are designed to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application. They provide practical skills, industry insights, and access to a network of professionals who can help you grow. Whether pivoting careers or sharpening existing skills, a GA course equips you with the tools and confidence to thrive in competitive industries.
Tuition is also a fraction of what you’d pay at a university, and from my experience, I’ve learned that our drive and desire are ultimately what will get us places. I know plenty of people with degrees who work in the service space and people like myself who started at the bottom and now manage and help others build careers.”
