I think its the best one actually
Even a year later this is an amazing and very detail mock interview, the break downs, details and real examples of a strategy, true experts
i learned so much from this one mock interview. Thank you so much for doing this.
Great to hear that, Archit, thank you :)
Good approach but the lense is wider than he thinks. "The way you move" is the correct lense but youre competing with A LOT Of people. Consider Transport for London for example -> underground tubes, bus network, trams etc.
I love Mark. He is really good
Sometimes, strategy or product design interview questions like this one are asked in phone screen interview round. How would the framework or answer format change in that situation in general? What about the question from this video? (I am assuming the phone screen will cover behavioral interview questions and maybe an estimation question, which would leave us with maybe 10-15 mins for the strategy/product design question). I have had that happen to me before in a FAANG phone screen
OMG!! mark! You just so good!! your structure, approach, and thought process, is one to be admire.. Your channel has really helped me a lot!! keep the good work...💪💪
just a quick suggestion, using a whiteboard to elaborate will really help.
Hi Alex, really glad these videos have helped you. Thanks for the feedback, yes we'll try out whiteboard or screen sharing in future videos :)
Is important to define in what market your new strategy is going to be applied, probably in this example it was the US. It surprised me, when I heard, in the substitutes part, that bicycles and mass transportation are not evolving nor interesting, when I would say that the opposite is happening in many places. The trend is to use more mass transportation and bikes (regular/electric). Please correct me if I am wrong.
Hi Jose, I see what you mean about bikes, what with electric and shared bicycle systems in many cities. I don't want to put words into his mouth, but perhaps Mark meant that these changes are not on a scale big enough to be a significant threat to Uber? Anyway, hope you enjoyed the rest of the answer.
@@IGotAnOfferPM I disagree. Consider this: uber via cars are not cheap and affordable to all. People are more and more conscious about their own health and the environment.
If youre in london, driving is not a great experience -> you wont get from A to B the fastest; infact an electric bike may serve you better. Cars are also limited in capacity by way of the road: bikes are smaller and therefore can scale due to using less space; countries have also built specific cycle lanes to promote more growth in this market.
Start with profitability but never address it? Not sure if this was a good interview
Good approach, but the analysis is not upto the mark
Thanks for the feedback Darshil - what would your analysis have been? Feel free to share it here :)
sorry guys, but this interview is a complete cr.p from any perspective
