For me the hardest part of the first question is understanding the acronyms. I think MoM is month on month. But MAU, no idea.

- thomzi12 7y agoHey! MAU = Monthly Active Users. Sorry about that, I think this could be described as data analyst/analytics jargon. Good feedback to spell these out, thanks!
- ziftface 7y agoI agree, it almost seems they were put there to add artificial noise to the problem. It doesn't seem like you're selecting for the right skills here.
- thomzi12 7y agoSorry about that -- in real life you would just ask the interviewer what MAU meant if they didn't spell it out. The purpose was to make the questions more realistic, since at least in my experience in data analyst interviews the questions are asked in the context of actual business or product situations ... like company leaders, PMs, or others wanting to understand trends in MAU.
