Metrics & Measurement
Metrics and measurement questions test your ability to translate business goals into measurable outcomes. Companies use them to assess whether you think rigorously about what to measure, what not to measure, and how measurement can go wrong.
Strong candidates define metrics with precision — not just "engagement" but "the percentage of users who perform at least one core action within 7 days of signup." They anticipate counter-metrics, guardrail metrics, and ways the primary metric can be gamed or mislead.
The best answers show that you understand measurement as a discipline: defining the North Star, selecting leading indicators, designing experiments with appropriate power, and communicating results to stakeholders who may push back.
