Keep getting caught between brainstorming and analysis in product cases. Heard private threads discuss FAANG interviewers’ time allocation hacks – what actually works? Need concrete breakdowns: how much time top performers spend on framework vs math vs recommendations. Especially struggling in B2B SaaS scenarios.
‘time rationing’ lol. here’s reality: first 5 mins make up a framework, 15 mins bullshit some numbers, rest on slides. they care about confidence, not math
i timebox 10min framework 25min analysis 10min recs but always overrun. need accountability buddies!
Shadowed a FAANG PM who swore by the 7-20-8-5 split: 7min problem clarification, 20min deep dive on one metric, 8min tradeoffs, 5min presentation. Worked surprisingly well when I tried it!
