Asked me about product metrics. They insist they are just looking for your "thought process", but the interviewers are inexperienced and thus looking at a check box on the side. My interviewer kept prodding me to cover a very specific metric and didn't care at all about the framework I outlined. The specific metric they finally disclosed would have given a very biased outcome - something they would have known if they had any experience at all. 2 yrs working in 1 company and a PhD that doesn't cover any true business scenarios doesn't qualify you to interview an industry veteran.

The interviewer was not at all welcoming as there was no greeting. He started by introducing himself and paused after a couple of sentences. I understood it was my turn to introduce myself, and I did well in that part. The next thing he said was I am looking for a person with Project Management experience, and your skills don't align with what I am looking. His expressions changed; since he was in the interview, he had to continue with it. 1) Can you tell me a little bit about your experience? 2) What are the parameters in Tableau? 2) A SQL coding question
