Starting a new Product Management job at a new company with no PM experience?
For the first 6-12 months you’ll have 3 threads running through your mind:
1. First PM role
2. New product. New company
3. Is subject X difficult for me because of #1 or #2?

This post by @lennysan is excellent for this. Good for beginners and vets.
I recommend:
• Skimming through this article
• Making notes about subjects you want to learn more about
• Discussing these with your manager in 1-on-1s https://www.lennyrachitsky.com/p/how-to-get-into-product-management

#2 - New product. New company
Every time a PM starts at a new company they deal with this.
Even veteran PMs.
There are many articles about what to do in the first days.

#3.a - Is subject X difficult for me because of #1 (first PM role) or #2 (new product/company)
This will be the most energy-draining.
In time you’ll learn to discern when a subject falls under #1 or #2.

This vid by @RGCrook may help with imposter syndrome.
Happens to every PM.
Thought mine passed after 2 years.
But it only passed during my first year as PM in a 2nd company. When I felt that the skills I accumulated are relevant to another company https://www.mindtheproduct.com/peace-in-the-valley-tips-for-growing-product-managers-by-rob-crook
