underrated channel. most of the candidates do excellent in the technical round and statistics round but fail miserably in the case study/product round. These videos are spot on and fill that gap perfectly.
@@emma_ding The problem they gave during the interview fell exactly into the "Diagnose a problem" category and they were quite impressed with my response even though I was merely following your framework :) understanding how commonly-used metrics can lead to success was also really important!
Hey guys, I'm so sorry for the typos in the slides, below are the corrections. In section "Measure success": calcification (clarification), sutable (suitable), Cancelation (Cancellation)
I’ve watched almost all of your videos and I learned sooo much. Thanks for sharing this information for free! You are very talented at describing complex problems with very few words and give the exact right examples. You could be the most popular instructor at any universities.
Wow! This video has really helped me. I was preparing for an IBM data science interview. Thank you a lot. I also do appreciate that you used real-world questions, which were asked by big names. Other people usually just make up their own. Thanks a lot.
I would tweak the framework for "Diagnose a Problem" a little bit. I believe decomposing the metric is very important, specially when it is a ratio. It helps to identify if the numerator went down or if the denominator went up. The framework I like to follow is - 1. Clarify 2. Time 3. Decompose the metric 4. Segment 5. New features 6. External influence 7. Summarize
Thanks a looot for this video! Got the job thanks to it :D I was struggling with business case studies especially in consulting firms interviews but this video made me so, so much better at it.
This is awesome to hear, Moutaouakkil! Congratulations on securing your new role! Feel free to share some more details with me if you'd like; what's the position and company?! So excited for you, and happy to have been a small part of your journey. 🥳
Hi Emma, thank you so much for the video! I have some questions about some of the steps you mentioned: 1. I was wondering what was the website in the video that has those sample case questions? 2. For the first category of questions which is diagnose a problem, the second step was analyzing the internal and external cause based on if the change happened suddenly or progressively. I feel like the examples for internal and external causes would lead to sudden change. What would be some external and internal reason that would lead to progressive changes? 3. What are the differences between the second category and the third category, which are measure success and launch or not? I feel like for launch or not type of question, we do need to measure the success first and then decide to launch it or not. So my understanding is that launch or not has the extra final step then measure success.Please correct me if my understanding is wrong. Thanks Emma!
Excellent job. Greatly appreciated. Right now I am doing the University of Texas Certificate in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Hopefully, this will prepare me for interviews after I have completed it. Thanks again.
Hi Emma - First of you all THANK YOU for the amazing content. I do have a question for you. How to answer questions like what should be the RUclips daily view time? How to answer such questions?
Hello! Thank you for such a helpful video. Made a lot of sense to me. I was wondering where I can learn more about the different types of business metrics? Like conversion rate, etc. I come from a Statistics background and I am pretty unfamiliar with these metrics. Would help me a ton if you could suggest some resources to me. Thanks!
I hope in the future you could release some walk-through videos targeting at real product sense questions, and discuss the possible answers using the framework. But this is already great content and very helpful! Thanks Emma
Hey Emma! First of all, thank you for this video! It's very clear and well explained, so helpful! -- Change to Chinese mode -- 感谢视频，最近在准备产品题，反复观看您的视频，觉得很有收获。但是因为没有任何case study实战经验，也真的特别期待您出一期例题实战回答或者mock interview+点评，（e.g. diagnose problem，why engagement is down）。我也看过一期不错的PM mock interview，也是类似的问题。但是非常好奇，一个DS回答此题的角度，跟PM应该有何不同呢？DS是否应该更侧重metric本身？更用数据说话？我看PM回答问题的framework也是clarify - time - segmentation等等。那期mock interview最后的solution就是发现其他team launch experiment/feature影响到了engagement,于是跟其他team讨论要不要继续。好奇从DS的角度，要如何侧重给一个solution呢？
Need some more insights on launch or not framework. Any good articles or books on it would be helpful. How can we test the efficiency of the new feature before launching it? Once we launch we could use success and guardrail metric as you suggested.
Typically, A/B testing is used to measure the effectiveness of a new feature. You may want to check out this video ruclips.net/video/X8u6kr4fxXc/видео.html. I recommend two resources at the end of the video.
Honestly, this video is really helpful for me! Thanks (again) for sharing this, Emma. A step-by-step video on how to solve a business problem using data science with real industry case would be intresting
This is an awesome video! I also like cracking DS case series a lot! I have a question. When I had onsite interview with some tech company, sometimes the interviewer will ask, "how will you collect the data to measure this?" or "What data will use to investigate some issue/measure the impact" all of these applied data questions. How should I ace these types of questions?
Hi Emma, I've watched all your videos related to product sense problems including the videos of the real interview questions. They are all so helpful! There seems no sample question for Launch or Not problems though. Could you please also make a video on this type of question and give a sample answer? Like the LinkedIn, Lyft and Facebook ones. Thank you so much!
Would you consider to go through a real interview question and answers for "Launch or not" category? The videos for diagnose a problem, measure success, and improve a product are very helpful!! If the interviewer is a Data Scientist, should we emphasize more or lead/expand the answers to AB test or ML modeling? How to do it? It seems like most categories can be expand to AB testing, but less to ML modeling.
Check this one out ruclips.net/video/JjA6hvmaK7/видео.html where I share how to measure success for a LinkedIn interview question. Let me know if it helps :)
Great content. I'm only on video two but I love the breadth and depth or the content with specific examples and real interview questions. I appreciate all the hard work you went through to provide a simple, easy to follow, concise video but I am sure it took hours of reading and note taking. Found you through KD nuggets.
I absolutely love your videos (thank you for making them!), but in case you were not already told, your slide at 8:38 says "calcification" , I think you meant "clarification", hope this helps!
Excellent video. Just sharing the next video idea(1): Several videos of... you are using/modifying your frameworks to answer the actual interview questions? (2) mock interviews video.
Thanks for the suggestions! You may find this playlist helpful ruclips.net/p/PLY1Fi4XflWSvtu963rZpfH6WeX54vSrDW. It contains answers to real interview questions.
Thank you for the amazing framework! I think there is a typo in the slide Framework(launch or not), 3. recommendation based on experiments result. I think it is "conversion rate" instead of "conversation rate".
Hi Emma, I had an interview ask if a feature can improve retention of their product. I followed the framework to ask interviwer to clarify the senario, but the interviewer was very impatient to clarify and couldn't wait to ask me how to use history data. I don't have chance to define the metrics (or follow other steps in the framework). I was very confused.
I don't know if it's too late but I read this book called "Lean Analytics". It categorizes different business models (E-commerce, two-sided market, SaaS) and what metrics to use at each stage of the business
Thanks a lot for the wonderful content. The framework is really well structured and I am sure it will help me prepare for my interview. But I was curious to know, what sort of questions should I start practicing. Since I am pretty sure most of us will be applying for different roles/industries, so it can seem a bit overwhelming and hard to decide from where we should start and what kind of questions should we focus upon.
Very helpful. I was once asked a question like this, "data analysis result varies depending on the person who analyze it. If I ask a group to analyze a data, how can I know who has the most 'correct' analysis result?". Can you or anybody who sees this post give me a good brief answer, link, or video regarding the question?
Thank you for sharing the framework. I wonder if there's an option for incorperating experimentation testing into the second "measure success" question? And when we don't want to incorporate experiment testing into the second part if it's an option?
Great framework. But nowadays this is not enough to get into top tech firms. I have been grilled many times on topics like experiment design and causal inferences. In particular for the first type of questions, you are not only expected to be able to provide several possible root causes but also find ways to test these ideas.
Thanks for the comment! This video is not meant to be comprehensive. Currently, I’m planning to make more videos on product metrics, which would dive deep. Experimental design and causal analysis would be other great topics to cover. Stay tuned!
Excellent content - just subscribed. You mentioned you went through a bunch of materials yourself - is there any content in particular you would recommend? Such as certain books, websites, videos etc Thanks again for putting this out! Looking forward to your future content
There are a lot of materials I benefited from and I listed them in my blog post towardsdatascience.com/how-i-got-4-data-science-offers-and-doubled-my-income-2-months-after-being-laid-off-b3b6d2de6938. Hope it helps!
Hi Emma, I love your video so much and it's really helpful. I have a quick question to ask: For the launch or not questions, I'm wondering if the engineering team has already finished developing the feature for you to do the experiment, why not just launch the feature on the product directly? Also, if I have a question like "I have 2 features in the backlog, can you help me decide which one should go first", how to think about a question like this? Thank you so much!
1. There are many factors influencing whether a feature should be launched or even rolled back after being launched. In fact, "launching" is a complicated process. This is a great question to ask the interviewer at the end of the interview. 2. This is similar to the "measure success" problem. You can refer to this video ruclips.net/video/JjA6hvmaK7I/видео.html
Thank you for your clarifying videos! I never could understand where to even begin, but now I have some structure. Can you suggest any books or resources for specific questions that I can use for practice?
This video is very helpful! Thanks, Emma! When we look at other features launched at the same company, is there any way to narrow down the features we need to look into? Since for big companies like Facebook, it might have hundreds of features changed within one month.
The interview time is short, you can give 1 or 2 examples of features and have good reasons to justify why they would affect the current product. You will be evaluated on the thought process and structure of your answers instead of knowing the exhaustive list or some particular features.
Hi Emma, really like your videos! I have a question about your last slide, in which you mentioned 'write down thought process with bullet points'. I am wondering how can I do that? should I propose to the interviewer that 'can I share one doc with you to write down my thought process ?' Thanks a lot, I believe it would be really helpful for my interview with FB next week.
That pullet point is for (pre-COVID) onsite interviews that you can use the white board in the room. For possibility of sharing a doc or other ways of presenting, I would recommend communicating with the FB recruiter. If it's not possible to share any docs, the best way is to verbally communicate your framework or thought process, say "This problem we have 3 things to consider. First.. Second.. Third...". Good luck to your interview!
Hi Emma~ Thank you so so so much for providing these free high-quality content for us! And I want to know what's the website you used to find the interview questions shown in the video! Thank you in advance.
Thanks for this post! So are you focused on analytical type of ds positions? Since you have listed different kinds of data positions, how did you decide to focus on any one of them? Have you also interviewed for ML focused roles?
Yep, I'd suggest taking a min to write down your thoughts before answering. You could ask the interviewer if it's okay to do so, and most likely they'd say yes.
If you prefer to read rather than watch this video, check out the blog post I wrote on this, and other, topics here ➡ www.emmading.com/resources

I believe decomposing the metric is very important, specially when it is a ratio. It helps to identify if the numerator went down or if the denominator went up.

2. Time
3. Decompose the metric
4. Segment
5. New features
6. External influence
7. Summarize
Much better than most DS interview videos. You deserve more subscribers!!

感谢视频，最近在准备产品题，反复观看您的视频，觉得很有收获。但是因为没有任何case study实战经验，也真的特别期待您出一期例题实战回答或者mock interview+点评，（e.g. diagnose problem，why engagement is down）。我也看过一期不错的PM mock interview，也是类似的问题。但是非常好奇，一个DS回答此题的角度，跟PM应该有何不同呢？DS是否应该更侧重metric本身？更用数据说话？我看PM回答问题的framework也是clarify - time - segmentation等等。那期mock interview最后的solution就是发现其他team launch experiment/feature影响到了engagement,于是跟其他team讨论要不要继续。好奇从DS的角度，要如何侧重给一个solution呢？
请问你可以分享下你看到的PM mock interview的视频吗？关于DS是否跟PM的答案一样 - 这个要看具体的问题了。PM跟DS都应该重视metric都应该用数据说话，这个好像不是区分的关键，而且我个人的经验是很多这一轮面试就是PM来面的。能从PM的角度回答问题也是充分说明一个DS的产品知识很扎实啊。但是有些公司的面试会把产品跟experimentation结合起来，一些问题会问到A/B testing的细节，这个就是DS的专长了。
@@emma_ding 谢谢回答，原来如此。ruclips.net/video/ID8YTF100A0/видео.html 这是我之前看到的视频，也是回答dignaose类型的。另外我也确实看到一些资料或者公司面试题要求从产品框架延伸到experimentation，这部分的mock interview见到的不多，感觉有些难度。我自己到定义metric之后，就答不出了。
Can you please walk us through solutions for some of the problem type examples you showed?
Thanks for the hidden gems Emma!

Great video. One minor correction. You wrote “calcification” when you meant “clarification” on the Measure Success slide.
Thank you for catching the typos. I made some comments under the video.
小姐姐，想问一个关于measure success 的问题。1）launch 之后就不能做ab test 了吧？
2） 如果不能做ab test, define 的metrics 要和谁比呢？ 整个ecosystem 的metrics 比如DAU 什么的可能还有baseline，像feature specific metrics, 比如新feature 的time spent, adoption rate 以什么为baseline 呢？还是只用整个ecosystem 的metrics 就可以了？
Great framework. But nowadays this is not enough to get into top tech firms. I have been grilled many times on topics like experiment design and causal inferences. In particular for the first type of questions, you are not only expected to be able to provide several possible root causes but also find ways to test these ideas.

Hi, Emma 你好，感谢视频，帮助很大。
我之前面Uber挂了一道case，就是他们要搞一个marketing campaign，说是要给用户发coupons，有些用户发有些用户不发，要我制定一个strategy该怎么发。我感觉这个和launch一个product 的new feature还不太一样，不知道这种问题你有什么好的建议吗，感谢。
你提到的这个问题更像是怎么选择A/B test的randomized unit，双边市场不能直接split by user因为users are all connected。这种情况下可以考虑split by market。Hope this helps!
可以split by location.A 城市发 B 城市不发

Emma, what does an interviewer wants when he asks "how can you utilize your previous knowledge into our product/company"?
During the interview, is it ok to say can I take a min to write down my thoughts/ framework? Or it’s better to write while speaking?
Yep, I'd suggest taking a min to write down your thoughts before answering. You could ask the interviewer if it's okay to do so, and most likely they'd say yes.
Great Video!
