Choose the right perspective
Match the person's role type, such as data science, business intelligence or data engineering, to the decision you face, and check whether their relevant role is current or past. Ask them for one specific decision their data supported and what happened when the data fell short.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01Walk me through a pricing or inventory decision you made. What data did you use, and what data were you missing?
- 02When did you realize the data you were relying on wasn't giving you the full picture?
- 03Tell me about a time when better data would have changed your decision—and why you didn't have it.
