Recent PM interview question I've been using: You're the PM at Netflix handling the home screen. How do you determine how shows get promoted editorially vs algorithmically recommended? Walk through metrics/principles/trade-offs and how it impacts various parts of the biz.

Another naive answer: "I'll have a editorial only section and an algorithmic only section" - there are definitely good ideas here but it sidesteps the core issue (you have finite amount of user attention, what do you show them?). The simple version of this is a cop out though.

another naive/bad answer: making early value judgements on certain decisions as "good" or "bad". For example - "netflix promoting their own shows is obviously bad". Doesn't reflect first principles thinking on what the objectives are.

As a lot of you have figured out instantly - this is really a iceberg question. Looks like a simple UX problem but is really about trying to understand Netflix as a system and as a business.

Make editorial more of a creative and less of a selection function. Algorithm still optimizes for metrics, but editorial is adding attributes, linking content and creating new bundles. This merges optimization with freshness and avoids the "Friends" takeover scenario.

Are PMs who don’t start with scoping the problem and setting out the objectives really PMs?

I use a variation of this - an ecommerce site displaying various sellers for a product page and how it decides to sort. That question sounds outdated after reading this :)
