How a final round interview wth Tony Xu (
@t_xu) at DoorDash goes:
"I'm going to give you 20 minutes and you can ask me any question that you want. But after the 20 minutes expires, I'm going to give you $20 that you can use to go and acquire 100 customers for us, and you have eight hours to do so.
But here's also a plane ticket, in case you want to quit the interview now and just move on and find somewhere else to work.
So much of what we were trying to test for early on is someone who's going to do something to go and collect information, as opposed to someone who's going to collect data, scrape information from the internet and do some magical analysis on it.
What if none of that information existed? You have to go and do things in order to actually collect information."
