DAU dropped 10%. How do you investigate?
Tests structured problem diagnosis. First, verify the data isn't corrupt. Then, segment the drop by user type (new vs. returning), platform (iOS/Android/Web), and geography to isolate the 'what' before hypothesizing the 'why'.
This tests your ability to apply a structured, data-driven diagnostic framework. A great answer first verifies the data's integrity, then segments the drop by key dimensions like user type (new vs. returning), platform, and geography. This isolates the impact before you form hypotheses about product changes or bugs. The biggest red flag is jumping to a single conclusion ('it must be the last release') without a methodical investigation or providing a disorganized laundry list of possibilities.
