FAQ / How to Use PM Interview Prep Club

What types of challenges do you offer?

We currently offer practice challenges in Guesstimates, Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Product Design, and Product Strategy. We're constantly adding new challenge types to cover all aspects of PM interviews.

Is there a peer-to-peer mock interview feature?

We are currently developing a peer-to-peer mock interview feature that will allow users to practice with each other. This feature is coming soon and will provide an even more realistic interview preparation experience.

How do I get started?

Sign up for an account, verify your email, and you will be able to access your first challenge. Start with the available challenge and work your way up as you complete more.

How are challenges structured?

Each challenge presents a question that requires estimation. You will have access to a whiteboard for calculations, hints to guide you, and a time limit to add pressure similar to real interview scenarios.

How is my answer scored?

Your score is based on the accuracy of your estimation, the time taken to complete the challenge, and the number of hints used. The closer your estimate and the faster you solve it with fewer hints, the higher your score.

What are AI credits and how do they work?

AI credits are used for our AI-powered solution evaluation system. Each time you submit a challenge for AI evaluation, 1 credit is deducted from your balance. New users receive 10 free AI credits upon registration. The AI evaluation provides detailed feedback on your approach, problem-solving skills, and areas for improvement.

How can I get more AI credits?

You can earn additional AI credits in several ways: Redeem your coins for AI credits in the rewards section (100 coins = 1 AI credit), complete our monthly challenges to win bonus credits, or purchase credit packs directly from your profile dashboard. We occasionally offer bonus credits during special events and promotions.

Why do I need AI credits for challenge evaluation?

AI credits help us provide high-quality, detailed evaluations of your solutions using advanced AI models. Each evaluation analyzes multiple aspects of your response, including approach quality, accuracy, time management, and whiteboard usage. The AI provides personalized feedback and specific suggestions for improvement, making it a valuable learning tool for your interview preparation.

How do I progress to more challenges?

As you complete challenges, you will unlock new ones. The platform progressively unlocks sets of three new challenges as you demonstrate proficiency.

Can I retry challenges?

Yes, you can retry challenges to improve your score or practice different approaches. Your best score will be used for the leaderboard.

What is in the leaderboard?

The leaderboard shows the top performers based on their cumulative scores for monthly competitons. It is a great way to see how you stack up against other users and track your improvement.

How can I improve my skills?

Practice regularly, analyze the hints provided, and review your approaches after each challenge. The Learn section also provides valuable resources and tips.

Is there a mobile app?

Currently, PM Interview Prep Club is a web-based platform optimized for both desktop and mobile browsers. A dedicated mobile app is in our future plans.
