C- 1. Reduced it to know if the person has the ability to pay or not.
2. Broke it down to 2 things: Expenditure and Savings.
3. For savings, we can look at bank balance and earnings. Then deep dived into how can we know these things.
4. For Expenditure, I broke it into necessity and luxury and then looking at how can we identify these.
Situation 2:
I- Suppose you have to open a store for musical instruments and you have access to all the data, what all sources of data can you think of and how will they be relevant?
C- 1. Firstly, I started by looking at some direct connection to the music industry like previous purchase of musical instruments they have made or their affiliation with some music-related society.
2. Listed 5-6 different ways but the interviewer kept on asking for more so then shifted to indirect connections like time spent on TV watching music channels. Listed 4-5 indirect ways and the interview ended.
It was a 20 min round with 8 min for each of the situation.
I- How will you build an IPL fantasy team for a match using the Cricbuzz data?
[Please note that I stands for Interviewer and C stands for Candidate]
C- 1. I asked about constraints like there are only 100 points.
2. Decided on a structure for the team to be made: 4 batsmen, 1 keeper, 3 bowlers, 3 all-rounders.
3. Reduced it into a utility maximization problem where each player will have some utility and cost associated with them. Now I had to devise a method to tell about the utility of each player as costs are already given.
4. Started with batting, listed various factors.
5. Then I deep dived into each factor as in how to quantitatively represent the data for every factor.
It went on for around 25 min and the entire interview revolved around this particular case.
