    Good framework and thought process by Ankur and good prompts by the interviewer, very insightful but little too long, realistically, there's not this much time given to one topic in any interview. Thanks for the insights

    I got mixed feelings about your guest. I got kind of stressed listening to him not sure why. But I really appreciate the efforts

    • @rocketblocks
      @rocketblocks  Pƙed 3 lety

      that's interesting - what was stressful about it?

      I agree- his coms skills are way off. It stressed me out as well

    • @IITianProudIndian
      @IITianProudIndian Pƙed 3 lety +11

      Agree! Ridiculously aggressive style of speaking. Total turn off!

    • @jpena930
      @jpena930 Pƙed 2 lety +3

      I agree.. we must always remember that the interviewer is also checking how it feels like to work with you on an actual project.. are you fun to work with? or going to be stressful?

  • @mayankkhanna9644

    This was great! Just one question though - Can we think about paying the mentors who subscribe? This wasn't mentioned.

    14:42 - I understand we need to prioritize a particular user segment and dive deep from there but wonder how to justify why i pick mentee over mentor

    Some of the assumptions \ questions mentioned in the beginning feel a little bit more like a formality to check off than serve any true purpose.
    Such as assuming that people go to linkedin for professional advancement as they currently do. There is nothing to even remotely indicate in the question that linkedin is suddenly going to be a different company, nor are such major changes common. It is really an overkill to mention it, and it just wasted sometime as the interviewer needed some clarifications on it.
