End to End Design Process Questions

Covers owning and executing a complete design effort from an initial brief through launch and iteration. Candidates should demonstrate problem definition from ambiguous requirements, scoping, and prioritization; planning and conducting or synthesizing user research; identifying user pain points, needs, personas, and journeys; generating multiple solution directions and ideation methods; creating wireframes, user flows, and information architecture; building prototypes at appropriate fidelity; running usability testing or other feedback sessions and synthesizing findings; iterating on designs based on evidence; collaborating with product management and engineering on implementation details and tradeoffs; preparing handoff documentation and design specifications; considering accessibility, performance, and maintainability; and defining success metrics and measuring post launch outcomes. Emphasize how each phase informs the next and how decisions were justified given constraints, stakeholders, and technical considerations.

Prepare a stakeholder communication plan for a major design trade-off that reduces feature scope but improves reliability and accessibility. Include audience segmentation, key messages, artifacts to share, timing, and how you will collect and address feedback from each stakeholder group.

As PM, what should a comprehensive design handoff include to minimize ambiguity during implementation? List files, specs, component behavior, accessibility notes, edge cases, visual assets, data contracts, and acceptance criteria. Describe formats or tooling that help keep design and engineering synchronized.

Create a migration plan for moving a legacy product UI into a new design system with minimal user disruption. Cover discovery, component mapping, deprecation policy, incremental rollout strategy, automated tests, developer incentives, and how to measure progress and impact.
HardTechnical

You are running many concurrent experiments and some overlap audiences and metrics. As PM, design an experiment management and analysis plan that addresses interference, multiple comparisons, false positives, and sequential testing. Explain how you would instrument experiments and communicate limitations to stakeholders.
