I participated in the interview of Tencent product planning (IEG data department) in Harbin on September 21, but I didn’t hold GM and had no luck with Goose factory. Here I would like to share the gluten of the four rounds of interview. (The running list begins).
[Interview route: group interview — leader interview — department boss interview — Director interview — HR interview]
September 21 —- Group interview (group interview)
Title: Use QQ/ wechat/Qzone any of the three platforms, equipped with artificial intelligence, product design, request a brief overview of the product scheme and business model.
There were ten people in the group, and the final result was three out of ten
Tencent’s group meeting is always results-oriented, and a complete product design scheme must be presented, otherwise the group will be destroyed, and there must be no quarrel among the group during the discussion, so that everyone’s score will be affected.
I acted as a leader in the discussion process, mainly proposing the framework for the initial discussion and leading the discussion direction. If it is important to be a leader, I need to be able to find out in time whether there is deviation in the discussion center within the group. If there is deviation, I must correct it in time. Once you stray, you can’t get back.
What we design is an intelligent chat recommendation system. In the chat process, through the intelligent semantic analysis of the content (text, voice), we can understand the current potential needs of users (food, clothing, housing and transportation) and recommend businesses or products intelligently. The main profit model is commission rebate.
During the discussion, there are several members in the group of privacy problem, this is really the product issue to consider, but must be in 20 minutes of discussion time, grasp the direction of the subject, subject to develop product solutions, then take out the plan, an overview of the sex to detail discussion can be conducted under the condition of the have a rest. This is a deviation from the discussion course, and the leader needs to appear in time to return the discussion to the right track.
The other two students in the group who have passed one is the provider of idea and the other is the supplement of idea. If these two students play well, they are bound to enter the next round.
At 21:36 on the same day, I received the notice of the first meeting of the next day. Tencent one day round of interview really feel tired heart.
September 22 —- first interview
The initial interview is the first day of the group interview, the interview process is about an hour.
First of all, I asked about the resume project, and the questions were very detailed. There was an entrepreneurial project in my project, which focused on the difficulties in the project, the corresponding solutions and the project to test the authenticity of the project and the understanding of the project.
Second question for 10000 recipe, to order interaction design of the system, and main investigation for a product is considered carefully, ask questions during the interviewer will repeatedly to interrupt your thoughts, some stress interview, this time must want to clarify our thinking, cannot be the interviewer, or be confident to present product design scheme.
The third problem is to re-plan the gas stations in the city and give planning ideas. This question is a data analysis question. It focuses on the ability to analyze problems and consider problems from a higher level. When doing the topic of analysis and planning, we must have reasonable grounds. We should give the logic that can be supported for each design, and try to avoid emotional analysis.
The fourth question is how to evaluate the rationality of the planning scheme proposed in the previous question. This question mainly examines the design of KPI. If sufficient theoretical and logical support is provided in the scheme design, this additional question can give the KPI design in a logical way.
To sum up, the initial interviewer is still very good, although there is a small part of the pressure of the interview, but as long as the mind is calm, you can cope with it.
22:25 PM received the text message of the second interview the next day.
September 23 — Department boss interview
The interview took the form of video interview, which was basically the same as the previous day’s interviewer’s questions. They asked about the resume first, mainly digging into the details of the project.
In the open question stage, I mainly asked a question to design a new operation reference index without the existing KPI system. This is also a data analysis topic. Two aspects are mainly investigated, one is to investigate the understanding of product operation data, the other is to investigate the logic of operation data analysis. This has a lot to do with the departmental nature of recruitment.
This side is shorter, about 25 minutes.
I also received a telephone notice at about 22:00 that evening and had an interview the next day. As the interviewer was on a business trip in Japan, the telephone interview was adopted.
September 24 – GM side
The interview was originally scheduled for 9:00 a.m., but the interviewer made the interview an hour in advance.
Didn’t want to let the interviewer to introduce myself, inquired about resume project directly, see a few main details for his involvement in know the situation of the project, the interviewer suspected returnees, ask for a problem to the school, 985 and 211, that is good, how many 211, 985, how many such problems, I analysis it is not in the test me, but he really don’t know, 90% of overseas returnees have no idea about China’s national conditions.
Product design can make in the face of the existing unearthed the pain points of new product design, product solutions are given, I design is the canteen food evaluation system, mainly for college students for the canteen food quality control and supervision of this pain points to the design, but apparently not interested in interviewing with to ask after the end of the interview.
Query status after two hours, GG.
After four rounds of the interview found that tencent school recruit people at this stage is very careful, as clubs, the interviewer will maximize the mining depth of the interviewer’s thinking, especially in preparing product planning jobs must consider comprehensively as possible their own project, don’t leave a corner, in addition to functions have a certain understanding, Since it is product planning, we must pay attention to the latest developments of the Internet, and we must often think about the analysis of competitive products of commonly used apps. The interview will be more or less involved in avoiding being caught off guard.
Ps: Goose factory is really harsh, into BAT are true strength, WISH good. Attached dig golden autumn essay contest link
