Cursor product fluency

Put this idea into your own words: "Product fluency is not a nice-to-have you can fake with the marketing site."

Step 1 of 2

The demo-back round is where most PMM candidates quietly fail. You will be asked to walk a panel through Cursor as if you were teaching a developer and a week of real usage is the only thing that survives that room.

Every GTM hire at Cursor demos the product back during the loop and you ship something with Cursor in onboarding. Product fluency is not a nice-to-have you can fake with the marketing site. It is the gate. A Product Marketing Manager who can't drive the editor can't write about it credibly and the panel knows that in the first two minutes.

Start by being able to name and narrate the core surfaces. Not features in the abstract, but the job each one does for a working engineer.
