    To the last question about High effort, high impact versus medium impact and low effort, I think it would be a good idea to understand the features impact towards the north star metric in the given time line. If the high effort feature cannot be delivered within the timeline but drives more impact towards the OKR, a stakeholder meeting could be called for, to draw a conclusion.

    Love Cherrie for these mock interviews! Thanks
  • Ooooh. Sorry guys I wasn't sold on this one. I was expecting a really straight forward method to [1] what are the discrete priorities, [2] their rationale on why they feel its a priority, then [3] layout the benefits in why this prioritization makes sense. That's it! If what I just saw is the standard, I guess I need to get a better grasp on prioritization. Nothing negative meant toward the mock-up at all. I searched out this topic because I am NOT an expert on this and wanted to learn great techniques. It just didn't give me what I expected. By no means am I saying I could do it better. Given that I am the only one that commented with question, obviously that says I need to get a better grasp on this.

    Wow, that was amazing! I just loved it. Way more deeper than reading about it online.
  • @danweiss9233
    I agree with everything the interviewee was saying about the difficulty associated with prioritizing in this context, but this video didn't even end with a concrete answers to the question.
  • @dwsolberg
    I think the mistake here was not asking enough questions. I would want a PM to start by many more clarifying questions.
  • I was expecting some kind of techniques for Prioritisation being named like moscow, 100 dollar etc.
  • I dont think she answered this question well.. It was so far from concise. I would answer by first asking clarifying questions to better understand the product, its mission and the current business objectives. Then from there I would brainstorm a few features and prioritize them using the rice framework. After that I would summarize a provide my solution. Instead she spends the first 5 minutes babbling about how the oculus is hard to put on...

    The interviewer was so unengaged. I wouldn't work for him. She was really giving a lot and he was very dry and not engaging back.
  • @erikuff
    Lol this is just a long way of saying it depends

    I am starting to dislike "PM interviews" and the growing cookie-cutter industry that let's anyone memorize their framework and process to get a job. So many intangibles in a real-world that many schools cannot prepare you for unless you dipped your toes. Highly suggest trying your "learnings" on your own startup idea first to get a true "guerrilla warfare" PM experience.
