From the creator of the CIRCLES, AARM & ESTEEM Methods™, The Product Manager Interview, 4th Ed. gives readers 167 practice questions to improve product management (PM) skills and master the interview. Authored by the world's expert in PM interviews, Lewis C. Lin, the book is ideal for PM roles including:

The book contains fully solved solutions so readers can learn, improve and do their best at the PM interview. Here are questions and sample answers you'll find in the book:

Product Design

Pricing

• How would you go about pricing UberX or any other new Uber product?
• Let's say Google created a teleporting device: which market segments would you go after? How would you price it?

Metrics

• Facebook users have declined 20 percent week over week. Diagnose the problem. How would you fix the issue?

Estimation
