Netflix PM interview, one question about diagnosing a metric drop on a live video feature. Pretty standard product analytics case but the IG Live framing threw me off a bit since this was for Netflix.
  • You're a PM on the live video team and viewership has been declining steadily by 10%. What's causing it and what do you do about it?

“I started with segmentation, which was the right call, but I spent too long on the diagnosis side and barely got to the 'what do you do' part before time ran out.”

Interviewed for a PM role at Netflix and got hit with a product design question tied to one of their reality shows. Pretty open-ended, which I wasn't fully prepared for.
  • How would you design a game tied to a popular Netflix reality show?

“I went straight to feature brainstorming and probably should've slowed down to ask clarifying questions first.”

Had a PM screen at Netflix that was pretty light on product theory and leaned more into estimation. Just the one question from what I remember, nothing too crazy but it tripped me up a bit.
  • How many airports are there in the US, and how many are there worldwide?

“Classic estimation question and I still fumbled it.”

PM interview at Netflix, one question about the recommendation engine. Pretty focused session, no fluff.
  • How would you measure the success of Netflix's recommendation engine?

“I started with engagement metrics and the interviewer kind of just waited, like they wanted more.”

Netflix PM interview, single question focused on how AI could improve their Help/support experience. Pretty open-ended and I wasn't totally sure how deep they wanted me to go on the technical side versus the product side.
  • How would you use AI to improve Netflix's Help and customer support experience?

“I started by trying to map out where users actually get stuck, like finding the right help article, troubleshooting playback issues, or figuring out billing stuff.”

Interviewed at Netflix and got asked about pushing back on stakeholders. Pretty short experience to describe but it's the kind of question that sounds easy until you're actually in the room.
  • How do you handle saying no to stakeholders?

“I fumbled this a bit.”

Netflix product interview, one question deep into video feature strategy for a younger audience. Pretty open-ended and I wasn't totally sure how much to lean into the metrics side versus the discovery side.
  • A new video feature is being launched targeting young adults. How would you evaluate whether there's product-market fit, and what metrics would you use to define success?

“I spent too long on the PMF framing and not enough time being concrete about metrics.”

PM strategy question for Netflix, specifically about international expansion risk into China. Short and focused, probably a screen or strategy round.
  • What risks would Netflix face if it expanded into China?

“This one is deceptively wide.”

PM interview at Netflix with one meaty operational design question. No frills, just a big open-ended flow problem that made me realize how little I'd thought about physical product logistics before.
  • Walk through the end-to-end flow for a customized drinking water purifier, from when a customer places an order all the way through delivery and installation.

“I froze for a second because my brain kept defaulting to software flows.”
