Charantej wrote an article about how Root Cause Analysis (RCA) cases are frequently encountered in product interviews as they assess a candidate’s product sense, structured thinking, and ability to examine problems from various perspectives.

The subsequent steps include reviewing the credibility of analytic tools, exploring external factors like competitor offers or media coverage, and investigating inconsistencies in the application, which may require Quality Analysis team intervention for regression testing.
