Five grade primary school contact computer. Junior high School play games, toss a variety of software, pay attention to internet knowledge. University, read a mechanical major, still concerned about the Internet.

When the Sogou browser of the first beta users, forum moderator, also go to Sogou company visit once, internship for two months. Although in Sogou company official internship experience only a short period of two months, but I still think is Sogou internship experience is my business product manager of the road of entry.

Can join Tencent when QQ product manager, still very honored. And Beijing's natural environment and the humanities are also very general. Therefore, the final choice to Shenzhen.

Back to the point, what is the product manager?

Personally, the product manager is the person who discovers the problem, analyzes the problem, and uses all the resources on hand to solve the problem.

Many companies in the school recruitment interview, will ask "how many people in the city", "How much the subway station per day", "this restaurant daily turnover how much" similar to such an open question.

In fact, not to get your answer, just want to see you think, solve the problem of thinking. Look at your logical thinking and adaptability.

The question, for example, "How much does the restaurant have per day?"

Analyze the problem: Determine the daily turnover of the restaurant.

Resources: Unknown

Thinking and answering:

If my resources are good enough, I go directly to the tax bureau, very convenient to get.

If I can not find the tax bureau, but I know journalists, friends of the media, or public comments, such as the United States Group of Friends of such sites. I can also go to the restaurant owner to get a sense of turnover.

If I don't know each other, I have to be alone. If you have the protagonist ability of the novel "Tiger Body an earthquake, Wang Pa qi exposed, onlookers are bowed down", it is also very simple, minutes to fix.

If I was a little cock silk, that also can often come to restaurants to eat, slowly with the boss set near, play good relations to ask.

Of course, there are purely technical solutions. Find a seat near the cashier's desk, find a weekday for a weekend, and find a busy time. Sit for one hours and record how many diners there are, and how much they consume.
