In this week’s edition of Level Up, we spoke with Sidiq Rufai, a UK-based product manager. He shared his journey of transitioning from marketing to product management and the many rejections he faced before landing his first role in the UK.
If your career journey were a movie, what would the title be and why?
From pillar to post, because my journey has been a series of pillars to posts, each step building on the last. Everything I’ve done has been a foundation for the next chapter. Being a photographer led me to copywriting, which became the pillar for content management. Content management, in turn, set me up to become a digital strategist.
Where I am now is just another pillar to a post I probably don’t even see yet. But from here, I’m starting to envision entrepreneurship, building something of my own.
