Interviewed Jun 2009 in Seattle, WA (took 3 weeks)

The people I talked to are smart. The onsite interview was quite exhausting. I talked to 6 people within 4.5 hours. Interview still went on over lunch. Some of the interview questions were tough and hard to prepare in advance as they asked for my opinions on product/marketing strategies or my thought process in analyzing data for business decisions when I only had a few seconds to think.

Interview Questions

If the SVP of this division communicates to you the business goal is to double revenue for this product in three years, how do you go about creating a three-year business plan that will achieve the goal?

Other Details

The interview consisted of a Phone Interview and a 1:1 Interview.
