Sample Qs:
1. Why is user activity decreasing in Miami? (Data when asked: UberEats just raised their prices for customers) 2. What would be the potential market for online pharmacy delivery business? 3. How would you measure the success of new grocery delivery business for the firm, given the competition?

Happy to give mocks interviews.

Still giving mock interviews?

The case interviews vary by the interviewer. Some are more relaxed / conversational and others are fully structured.

The cases center around a core component of DoorDash’s business model. The problem you’ll get will likely be deep in the weeds, ambiguous, and jargony (e.g. time between order and driver pickup is highly variable, what should we do?) so be prepared to ask clarifying questions.

Tips: focus on the platform dynamics and the key stakeholders (dasher, merchant, customer) and be structured and you should be fine.

How’d everyone’s interviews go?? Going through this now

There is a practice test you can buy online for Uber. Used that as reference for Uber Eats interview. Would probably be very relevant here.

Hello 🦈s,

I have also cleared PwC India interview & HR has told me that they can give me 10.5 as Fixed (Before 12 offer). I have not yet received the offer letter.

Now my question is will PwC consider this offer for the re-negotiation? Or will they not release the offer letter itself?

Also what should be my ask for a SAP ABAP Developer with experience of 3.3 Years?

Thanks in Advance 🙏

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers.

I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
