Title: I have 10 years of experience as a software engineer with various roles as a lead engineer. I have never managed anyone directly - nor hired&#x2F;fired anyone. I recently applied for a manager role at a great company (not a big-5). To my surprise, they&#x27;re interested in my profile and would like to start the interview process. My goal is to grow in those areas and gain a new set of skills.<p>This role does not involve intense coding but requires a good high level understanding of technologies. It is focusing a lot on career growth, decision making, resource allocation and mentoring.<p>How could I make a good impression despite the lack of management experience? I did mentor engineers, etc. in the past. Happy to hear about things I should be expecting.
