You run a video streaming service like amazon video and viewership is down. What metrics/algorithms do you use to decide what to do? Interviewer seemed to want specific formulas of some kind as opposed to general investigative steps to take. Any ideas?
What type of questions did they ask, which were indicating they wanted specific algo or formulas?
🤔 Stream porn?
Is this for software engineer position?
Use buzzwords like machine learning / time series regression analysis to figure out correlation between factors that have changed over last year
If you said “time series regression analysis” I would def not hire you. Do you even autocorrelate?
how many YOE? was this the system design loop?
Hard to tell what the interviewer was looking for. Most likely just normalized by past month and look at what region caused it etc. They are just looking for what relevant guesses you can come up with and what exactly will you look in the database/logs to validate or invalidate that hypothesis
Buy better content?? There aren’t too many things that I care about to watch on amazon prime.
This ftw
