Sample interview questions
I would define primary metrics such as qualified engagement, dwell time, return rate, and creator/content diversity, along with guardrail metrics for hides, reports, latency, and concentration. I would run a randomized A/B test, validate experiment integrity, assess statistical significance and practical effect size, and segment results by user cohort and content type.
I would combine contextual signals such as locale, onboarding interests, referral source, and current market trends with broadly high-quality and diverse content. As the user interacts with the feed, I would quickly update their profile using clicks, dwell time, follows, saves, and negative feedback while ensuring sufficient exploration.
Correlation shows that two variables move together, while causation means that changing one variable produces a change in the other. For product decisions, I would prefer randomized experiments where possible; when experimentation is not feasible, I would use careful observational methods and explicitly account for confounders.
I would first reproduce and categorize the case by user cohort, content type, retrieval source, ranking stage, and recent behavior. Then I would inspect feature values, logging completeness, candidate diversity, model scores, and feedback signals to identify whether the issue comes from data quality, recall, ranking, or policy constraints before proposing and testing a fix.
They can generate richer representations of text, images, and videos; improve topic tagging; identify emerging events; and help detect duplicate or low-quality content. I would validate their outputs against human-labelled data, monitor cost and latency, and use the resulting features within a controlled recommendation experiment.
