Out of curiosity, what did you say you’d do with all the dog picture data in FB?
1. Ask clarifying questions: private/public photos, what do we mean by dog photos, are they photos uploaded by users, in groups, by businesses, How many photos we have, geo location ETc..
2. Think of customers who could benefit from this data and expound their current problems you see. Go broad then deep and prioritize one user type.
3. Usual go broad on solutions, use AI etc to come up with few cool features.
4. Prioritize feature and talk about how you will measure success
5. Think cons of these features and say what you would do to address them.
Often we keep boundaries in mind that this will be an execution or estimation question. At every step check in with interviewer if you feel this structure is good, if they say no pivot to another type. It’s simple..
