Historical dates
- APB 2025 (first-ever cohort): opened Sept 2, 2025, closed Sept 7, 2025 11:59pm PST - very short window (5 days). Separately, LinkedIn PM INTERNSHIP applications open ~Sept-Oct, close by ~Nov (different track from APB). Source: direct APB program page + apmlist.org guide.
Notes
IMPORTANT: LinkedIn retired the 'APM' name - now called Associate Product Builder (APB), an AI-native cohort program, first cohort early 2026. Historical APM opened late Jan/early Feb in past years - APB timing may differ, needs fresh verification.
