PracHub editorial advice for the preparation topics above.
Watching an experiment daily and stopping when it crosses significance
A fixed-sample test controls type I error at one pre-declared look. Checking repeatedly and stopping at the first p < 0.05 inflates the false positive rate to roughly 0.15 to 0.20 for ten looks, and it rises further with more frequent checks, because the p-value takes a random walk that will eventually dip below the threshold under the null. The usual defences are a fixed horizon declared before launch, group-sequential boundaries such as O'Brien-Fleming that spend alpha across a planned number of looks, or always-valid confidence sequences that are correct under continuous monitoring. Compounding it, the effect size reported conditional on having crossed the threshold is biased away from zero, and the bias is larger the lower the power was, so an underpowered test that 'won' typically overstates the lift it found.
Slicing a flat experiment until a segment reaches significance
Testing one metric across twenty segments at a nominal 5% level produces a significant result about two thirds of the time when nothing is happening anywhere, and the segment that surfaces is by construction the one with the most favourable noise. The reported effect in that slice is then badly overstated, because selection on significance conditions the estimate on being large. What makes it dangerous rather than merely wrong is that a post-hoc segment always has a plausible story attached, so it survives the meeting. The controls are declaring the small number of segments of interest before launch, correcting across the ones tested, and treating anything discovered afterwards as a hypothesis that needs its own adequately-powered test rather than a finding.
Reaching for a model before the target metric exists
Before naming an algorithm, write down the label, the prediction time, and the action that changes when the score crosses a threshold. If you cannot say what decision the output drives, any modelling choice is guesswork dressed up as method.
Analysing at a different unit than the one randomised
Say out loud what was randomised (user, device, account, cluster) and make the analysis unit match, or account for the clustering with cluster-robust standard errors, the delta method, or aggregation up to the randomised unit. Randomising users and then running a test over sessions understates variance and inflates the false-positive rate.

Sessionise an event stream with gap and midnight rules
Sessionise a raw event stream. Input: a DataFrame with visitor_id, user_id (often NULL), occurred_at_utc and event_name, unsorted, up to 5 million rows. A session breaks when the gap from that visitor's previous event exceeds 30 minutes, and is force-closed at UTC midnight so no session spans two calendar dates. A gap of exactly 30 minutes does not break. Emit one row per session with session_id, visitor_id, the user_id as of the last event in the session, started_at_utc, ended_at_utc, session_date, duration_seconds and event_count. Vectorise; do not loop per visitor.
Approach
- Sort by ['visitor_id', 'occurred_at_utc', 'event_id'] once, then express the whole problem as one boolean vector: a row starts a new session when the visitor changed, or the gap exceeds 30 minutes, or the UTC date differs from the previous row's UTC date. Cumsum that vector and you have the session key.
- Get the comparison direction right on the gap: the rule is strictly greater than 1800 seconds, so an event at exactly 1800 seconds continues the session. Write it as gap > pd.Timedelta(minutes=30), and make the tie a test case rather than an assumption.
- Derive the midnight break from the date change, not from inserting synthetic boundary rows. A date change implies a break even when the gap is two seconds, which is precisely the force-close rule and is why the two conditions are ORed rather than one subsuming the other.
- Aggregate with a single groupby on the session key: min and max of occurred_at_utc, size for event_count, and last for user_id, which is correct because the frame is already sorted so 'last' is the final event in the session. That is the identity-as-of-session-end rule.
- Compute duration_seconds as (max - min).dt.total_seconds(), which makes a single-event session 0 seconds. Say so explicitly, because a downstream mean session duration is sensitive to whether single-event sessions are 0 or excluded.
Worked solution 35 min
- df = df.sort_values(['visitor_id','occurred_at_utc','event_id']).reset_index(drop=True).
- new_visitor = df.visitor_id.ne(df.visitor_id.shift()); gap = df.occurred_at_utc.diff(); new_day = df.occurred_at_utc.dt.date.ne(df.occurred_at_utc.dt.date.shift()).
- is_start = new_visitor | (gap > Timedelta(minutes=30)) | new_day; df['session_key'] = is_start.cumsum().
- g = df.groupby('session_key'); out = g.agg(visitor_id=('visitor_id','first'), user_id=('user_id','last'), started_at_utc=('occurred_at_utc','min'), ended_at_utc=('occurred_at_utc','max'), event_count=('event_id','size')).
- out['session_date'] = out.started_at_utc.dt.date; out['duration_seconds'] = (out.ended_at_utc - out.started_at_utc).dt.total_seconds(); assign session_id from the sorted index.
Follow-up
- Sessions are used as the denominator of a conversion rate. How does moving the inactivity gap from 30 to 45 minutes move that rate, and in which direction?
- A visitor's clock is 40 minutes ahead, so their events arrive with future occurred_at values. What does your sessioniser do, and what would you rather it did?
- The same person signs up mid-session on mobile and continues on desktop. How many sessions and how many users does your output show, and is that the right answer?
Rebuild sessions from raw events with a thirty-minute gap
From fct_event (event_id, visitor_id, occurred_at_utc) alone, rebuild sessions: a new session begins when the gap from that visitor's previous event exceeds 30 minutes, and every session is force-closed at UTC midnight so none spans two calendar dates. Return one row per session with visitor_id, session_start, session_end, event_count and session_date. Do not read fct_session; the point is to reproduce it. Assume duplicate occurred_at_utc values exist for the same visitor.
Approach
- Get the previous timestamp per visitor with LAG(occurred_at_utc) OVER (PARTITION BY visitor_id ORDER BY occurred_at_utc, event_id). The event_id tiebreaker is required, not stylistic: with duplicate timestamps an unstable ordering makes the boundary flags non-deterministic between runs.
- Set a boundary flag when prev IS NULL, or occurred_at_utc - prev > interval '30 minutes', or occurred_at_utc::date <> prev::date. The third disjunct is the midnight rule, expressed as a date change rather than a clock comparison so it holds across any gap length.
- Number the islands with SUM(flag::int) OVER (PARTITION BY visitor_id ORDER BY occurred_at_utc, event_id ROWS UNBOUNDED PRECEDING). Because event_id is unique the ordering is total, so no two rows are peers and RANGE UNBOUNDED PRECEDING would compute exactly the same numbers here. Write ROWS anyway: it is the half of the guard that survives someone later simplifying the ORDER BY back to occurred_at_utc alone, at which point the default RANGE frame gives every row sharing a timestamp one shared running total.
- GROUP BY visitor_id and the island number, then MIN(occurred_at_utc) AS session_start, MAX(...) AS session_end, COUNT(*) AS event_count, session_start::date AS session_date.
- Reconcile against fct_session on one sample day. The counts should agree except for server-emitted events carrying no client session, so a systematic difference beyond those is a bug in the gap rule or in the ordering.
Follow-up
- Why 30 minutes? What does a 5-minute rule do to sessions-per-visitor and to any per-session conversion rate?
- The same person uses phone then laptop. Two visitor_ids, two sessions. What breaks if you sessionise on user_id instead?
- The midnight rule splits an overnight session. Which metrics does that bias, and in which direction?
Weekly visit-to-signup conversion split by acquisition channel
From fct_session (session_id, visitor_id, started_at_utc, referrer_channel, is_bot_flagged, consent_state) and fct_event (visitor_id, occurred_at_utc, event_name), compute visit-to-signup conversion for one ISO week, split by channel. session_id is the unique key of fct_session. Denominator: distinct visitor_id with a session starting in the week, is_bot_flagged = FALSE and consent_state <> 'denied'. Numerator: those visitors with a 'signup_completed' event in the same week. Label each visitor with the referrer_channel of their first session in the window. Return channel, visitors, signups and rate, plus one all-channel total row.
Approach
- Build a visitor spine that is one row per visitor: filter sessions to the week, drop is_bot_flagged and consent_state = 'denied', then take the first session per visitor with ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY visitor_id ORDER BY started_at_utc, session_id) = 1 to carry the channel label. Collapsing to one row here is what makes the channel buckets mutually exclusive and the totals additive.
- session_id is the unique key, so that ordering is total and the label is reproducible. If the table carried no unique key you would have to write an explicit tie rule instead, because two sessions on different channels at the identical timestamp would otherwise label the visitor differently between runs.
- Attach the outcome as a semi-join (EXISTS on a signup_completed event for that visitor inside the same week) rather than a join to the event table, so a visitor who fires the event twice does not count twice and inflate the numerator past the denominator.
- Aggregate with COUNT() as visitors and COUNT() FILTER (WHERE signed_up) as signups, and compute the rate as signups::numeric / NULLIF(visitors, 0) so an empty channel returns NULL rather than a division error.
- Produce the total with GROUP BY GROUPING SETS ((channel), ()), which re-sums numerator and denominator for the total row. Averaging the channel rates gives a different and wrong number whenever channel volumes differ, which they always do.
- Verify the spine before trusting the output: COUNT(*) must equal COUNT(DISTINCT visitor_id), and the per-channel visitor counts must sum to the total row.
Worked solution 20 min
- Write the filtered session CTE and check its row count against an unfiltered count, so you know how much volume the bot and consent filters removed.
- Add the ROW_NUMBER first-session pick and assert one row per visitor.
- Add the EXISTS outcome flag and aggregate with FILTER.
- Add GROUPING SETS for the total and format the rate to four decimal places.
- Spot-check one channel by hand: pull its visitor list, count signups directly, compare.
Follow-up
- The denominator is distinct visitors. If a browser release shortens cookie lifetime, what happens to this rate, and how would you tell that apart from a genuine drop?
- A visitor's first session is direct and their signup session is paid search. Your label says direct. When is that the wrong answer for the decision being made?
- How do you roll four weeks into a month, and why is averaging the four weekly rates wrong?

Walk us through your approach to a recent data analysis project you led.
Approach
- Restate the decision this analysis has to support, and who acts on the answer.
- Decompose the metric into the rates that drive it, and say which one you would check first.
- Fix the population and the time window before naming any metric.
Follow-up
- What would you do if the primary metric and the guardrail moved in opposite directions?
- How would you detect that the metric is being gamed rather than genuinely improving?
Diagnose a 50.5 to 49.5 split before reading the result
An experiment randomised on visitor_id ran for 11 days. fct_experiment_exposure holds 104,320 control rows and 102,180 treatment rows for the experiment_id, all with is_in_analysis_population = TRUE, against a configured 50/50 split. The treatment arm shows a 3.1% relative lift in visit-to-signup conversion at p = 0.004, and the team wants to ship. Decide whether that lift can be reported, show the arithmetic behind your decision, and name the three checks you would run first on the exposure logging.
Approach
- Test the split instead of eyeballing it. Chi-square goodness of fit against 103,250 expected per arm gives 2 x 1070^2 / 103,250 = 22.2 on 1 degree of freedom, p about 2.5e-6. The conventional alarm threshold is p < 0.001, so this is a sample ratio mismatch.
- Treat the mismatch as invalidating, not as a caveat. The arms are no longer exchangeable, so the 3.1% lift has no causal reading and rebalancing on covariates afterwards does not restore it.
- Walk the logging path in the order units flow through it: assignment service, then the exposure event fired on the treated surface, then the filters that build the analysis population. Each stage can drop one arm preferentially.
- Name the three suspects this stack actually has. Exposure emitted by client code the treatment arm reaches later or not at all when its bundle errors; an extra redirect or render in one arm that loses slow connections; and a post-assignment filter (is_bot_flagged, is_internal, consent_state) that correlates with variant.
- Check whether the imbalance is uniform by splitting counts on session_date, surface, app_version and device_type. A mismatch confined to one client build or to day one points at a deployment fault that can be fixed and re-run, not at a design fault.
Worked solution 15 min
- N = 206,500, expected 103,250 per arm, observed deviation 1,070, which is 0.518% of the total pushed into one arm.
- Chi-square = 2 x 1070^2 / 103,250 = 22.18 on 1 df, p about 2.5e-6.
- Compare with the p < 0.001 threshold and stop: the readout is void.
- Re-pull the same counts grouped by session_date and app_version to localise where the rows were lost.
- Deliver one line: the split is off by 1,070 visitors, a roughly one-in-400,000 event under correct randomisation, so the experiment is being fixed and re-run rather than read.
Follow-up
- The imbalance is entirely in one app_version on android. Can you salvage the other surfaces, and under what argument?
- How would you monitor this across every running experiment without drowning in false alarms from a daily chi-square at alpha 0.05?
- The missing rows turn out to be disproportionately visitors with consent_state = 'unknown'. What does that do to the estimate even after the logging bug is fixed?
Size every candidate cause of a trial-to-paid decline
Trial-to-paid conversion on weekly trial-start cohorts from fct_subscription_period reads 3.1 points below the trailing eight-week mean for the three most recent cohorts. Three things happened in that window: a pricing experiment reached 50% of new trials, a payment processor migration added settlement delay, and paid_search spend tripled. Using fct_subscription_period, fct_experiment_exposure and dim_user, rank the causes by their contribution in points of the headline, state the remainder, and give the decision you would take on Monday.
Approach
- Kill the immature cohorts first, because everything downstream is computed on them. The metric is lagged by the trial length plus a 14-day conversion window plus a settlement allowance, and a processor migration lengthens exactly that last term; recompute each cohort at a fixed cohort age rather than as of today, and confirm the newest cohort's value is still climbing day over day.
- Hold the experiment analysis to the exposed population. Join fct_experiment_exposure on unit_id with is_in_analysis_population = TRUE rather than reading an assignment log, then check the variant split for a sample-ratio mismatch before believing any effect at all. Contribution to the headline is the variant effect multiplied by the exposed share, which is not the same number as the variant effect.
- Decompose the cohort mix by dim_user.first_touch_channel using the same weight-times-rate arithmetic as any other mix question, so the paid_search increase is sized as a weight change at a measured conversion rate rather than asserted from the spend figure.
- Convert all three to points of the headline, sum them, and print the residual against the historical week-to-week standard deviation of the metric. If the residual is inside that band, say so and stop looking; if it is outside, name what you would investigate next rather than leaving it implied.
- Land the decision. Only one of the three is actionable on Monday, so state whether the experiment has accrued enough exposed units to stop at the pre-declared horizon, and state separately what the settlement-lag correction does to the published series and its lag rule.
Follow-up
- How do you choose the fixed cohort age, and what do you lose by choosing it too long?
- If the pricing variant is genuinely 1.2 points worse, does that settle whether to stop it? What else is on the other side of that decision?
- The trailing eight-week mean spans the processor migration. What is the right baseline instead?
Instead of guessing where the week should go, day one measures it under a fixed rubric and allocates the remaining hours in proportion to the gaps. The method is deliberately rigid: the allocation is written down before any studying starts and is not renegotiated when a topic turns out to be unpleasant.
Prepare, practise & reflect
One practical outcome each day. Spend longer where you need it.
0 / 7 done01Diagnostic, scored before you study anything
- Sit a 100-minute timed diagnostic in four blocks: 30 minutes of SQL across three prompts, 25 minutes of short-answer statistics, 25 minutes on one modelling or case prompt, and 20 minutes delivering one behavioural story aloud.
- Score each block from 0 to 3 on a fixed rubric where 3 is correct and fluent, 2 is correct but slow or prompted, 1 is partially correct, and 0 is stuck, grading the output rather than how the attempt felt.
- Allocate the hours for days two to five roughly in proportion to 3 minus the score in each block, write the allocation down, and commit to not revising it midweek.
Deliverable: A scored rubric and a fixed hour allocation for the rest of the week.
Practice prompt ↗Practice prompt ↗Worked solution ↗02Largest gap: find the boundary rather than the subject
- Break the weakest area into five named sub-skills (for query work: grain control, window frames, date arithmetic, set logic with NULLs, and reading a query plan) and rate each one, so the rest of the week targets a sub-skill instead of a subject.
- Solve three problems chosen to sit just above where the rating drops off, and for each write the first move you failed to make.
- Re-solve one of them from memory four hours later, on paper, with nothing open.
Deliverable: A five-item sub-skill map with the two blocking sub-skills circled.
Practice prompt ↗Practice prompt ↗03Largest gap: drill the blocking sub-skill
- Do eight short repetitions of the same shape rather than eight different problems, so what you practise is the pattern and not the puzzle.
- Write the rule you now hold in one sentence, then test it against a case built to break it: a ranking function over a column with ties, or a two-sample test on observations that are obviously dependent.
- Have someone else read your one-sentence rule and find the precondition you left out.
Deliverable: One rule statement with its preconditions attached and one counterexample that would have caught the incomplete version.
Practice prompt ↗Practice prompt ↗04Second gap, plus maintenance on your strongest area
- Run the same sub-skill map and boundary protocol on the second-largest gap, compressed into half the day.
- Spend 25 timed minutes on your strongest area to stop it decaying, choosing the hardest problem you can still finish rather than an easy warm-up.
- Compare how the two areas fail: whether you lose time on recall, on setup, or on arithmetic, because the fix differs for each.
Deliverable: A second sub-skill map plus a one-line diagnosis of how each area fails you.
Practice prompt ↗Practice prompt ↗Worked solution ↗05The gap that is not a skill
- Record yourself answering one technical and one behavioural prompt, then count two things in the playback: how many seconds before your first clarifying question, and how many sentences you started without knowing where they ended.
- Rewrite your three most-used stock phrases into shorter versions, and practise saying "I do not know, here is how I would find out" without softening it into a guess.
- Deliver one answer again with a hard 90-second limit to force structure before detail.
Deliverable: Two recordings with a counted improvement in time-to-first-question.
Practice prompt ↗Practice prompt ↗06Retest under day-one conditions
- Sit the same 100-minute diagnostic structure with new prompts of comparable difficulty and score it on the identical rubric.
- Compare block by block, and for any block that did not move, change the method rather than adding hours: a block stuck at 1 usually means the practice was too varied, not too short.
- Write which single block you would still lose the offer on.
Deliverable: A second scored rubric placed next to the first, with one named remaining risk.
Practice prompt ↗07Full loop under interview conditions
- Run a 60-minute mock covering the two blocks that moved least, with an interviewer instructed to interrupt and change direction.
- Write your recovery script for the moment you go blank: restate the question, state your assumption, name the first thing you would check.
- Reduce the week to the rule statements you wrote, each with its preconditions attached, then say every one of them out loud without reading it and cut any you cannot state in a single sentence, since a rule you have to reconstruct mid-answer will not survive being interrupted.
Deliverable: A one-page card holding the recovery script and only the rules you could state from memory.

Disagree with a product manager's roadmap claim using data
A product manager proposes building a feature on the argument that accounts connecting an integration in week one retain three times better at week four. The figure is correctly computed from dim_user and fct_event, and it has already been shown to leadership. You have one scheduled 1:1 before the roadmap locks. Deliver the specific analysis you would run to test whether the relationship is causal, the result that would change your own mind, and how you open the conversation so that the PM is not put in the position of defending the number in public.
Approach
- Recognise what is being probed: whether you can separate a number being right from an inference being wrong, and do it without costing the PM face. The generic answer recites that correlation is not causation; the strong one names the specific confound and proposes the cheapest design that could distinguish the explanations.
- State the alternative concretely. Accounts that connect an integration in week one are accounts that already have a workflow and a technical owner, so week-one intent plausibly drives both the connection and week-four retention. The selection is on intent, which no amount of post-hoc adjustment observes.
- Order the discriminating analyses by cost. First, condition on pre-connection activity by comparing retention within strata of week-one core-action count, which removes the crude version of the confound but not unobserved intent. Second, look for variation in integration availability that was unrelated to intent, such as a staggered release or an outage window. Third, an encouragement design that randomises a prompt to connect and reads the intent-to-treat effect on week-four retention, which is the only version that identifies an effect.
- Run the timing check, because it is nearly free and it is the most persuasive single piece of evidence. If the retention advantage among connectors is already visible before any of them connected, the causal story is largely finished.
- Pre-commit to what would change your mind and say it before you show anything: if the gap survives stratification and the encouragement arm moves week-four retention at all, the feature has a case and you will say so.
- Open the 1:1 by agreeing with the true part, that the correlation is real and worth chasing, then ask what effect size the roadmap plan assumes. That makes the size of the claim the topic instead of its authorship.
Follow-up
- The encouragement test needs six weeks and the roadmap locks in two. What do you recommend in the interim?
- Stratifying on week-one activity closes half the gap. What do you conclude, and what do you still not know?
- How would you word this in the roadmap document so the PM's original number is reframed rather than deleted?
