The secret is threefold
1. Do or say you did the work
2. Actually know what the work is -- be able to speak comfortably about the lingo processes etc artifacts ceremonies what does a daily standup actually look like how do you run your entire process which days are for which ceremonies do you always run all ceremonies which tools do you use how do you deal w an engineer not getting stuff done etc etc
3. Apply to roles with 'technical' in the name, because that is your leverage and they out that title there because the position has failed in the hands of a non technical product owner
Side note
Product owner easier to get than product Mgr for a bunch of reasons
Much more plentiful these days
The projects are internal so the whole external customer interviewing skillset goes away, all the market analysis, etc
You have to be willing to say you're a great communicator of course and depending on the job you LOVE agile and scrum and all that they stand for
You have to feel out your interviewer on that stuff
