PM Interview question - seeking advice
How do you answer this question? If X didn’t exist today and you were launch X from scratch today, how would you build it? (Ie. say X = YouTube) I was asked this recently at a google PM interview. Wasn’t like the normal how would you design or how would you improve, so I was tripped up a bit. How do you recommend I approach this question?
To me it's pretty much the same question as saying design a video sharing product. Same process.
lol
No one can compete with a Microsoft PM in cracking a PM interview as it involves world-class BS and MS Program manager are masters of BS.
The key is realizing today is different than 2005. How does that change YouTube?
in 2005 it was worth millions now its worth billions.. you a pm?
I don't think you understood
Read some pm interview prep books. Having a framework you can apply for launching a new product is a must.
Sounds like a normal design question. Start with asking gthe clarifying questions to understand what you need to build, who it's for, etc.
It’s kind of weird though because we already know what works with YouTube. And suggesting otherwise require a big leap of faith.
That’s the job OP. It’s not to stick with “what works”, its to invision the next great thing
