These questions are designed to get answers about if you have the product sense to build something useful. Your creativity and ingenuity are put on the stand here, and you need to be ready to prove what you\u2019ve got.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"864\" src=\"https:\/\/www.productmanagementexercises.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Top-8-Product-Design-Questions-in-a-Product-Manager-Job-Interview-1-1536x864-1.webp\" alt=\"Top 8 Product Design Questions in a Product Manager Job Interview\" class=\"wp-image-4165\" style=\"width:768px;height:432px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To go in-depth with product design questions, you can check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.productmanagementexercises.com\/product-manager-interview-course\/how-to-answer-a-product-design-questions\">product design interview guide<\/a> to prepare for each of these questions. There\u2019s no need to hesitate when answering if you do the proper prep work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are eight questions that are regularly asked in PM job interviews today. They can be addressed in creative and solution-based ways that show the interviewer what you can deliver for them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"1-design-a-product-for-facebook-to-fight-covid-19\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Design_a_Product_for_Facebook_to_fight_COVID-19\"><\/span>1. Design a Product for Facebook to fight COVID-19<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To answer this question appropriately, you need to familiarize yourself with the types of people negatively affected by COVID-19 and understand their needs as a consequence. Ask yourself questions like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are they staying home more?&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are they not socializing as much as before?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have they lost access to child care?&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Etc.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Starting with your customer\u2019s pain points will allow you to design a product to mitigate them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.productmanagementexercises.com\/2588\/design-a-product-for-facebook-to-fight-covid-19\">See how our community answered this question here<\/a>.

Design a Vending Machine for Blind People<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is plenty of technology out there that makes accommodations for the blind. This is your chance to apply it to something new and demonstrate how you apply things that already exist to new ideas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ask yourself, \u201cwhat are the unique needs of the blind? How do they interact with physical devices, and how can you enhance that experience? Don\u2019t be afraid to get creative when designing a vending machine that reimagines the experience for this group of customers.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.productmanagementexercises.com\/387\/design-a-vending-machine-for-blind-people\">See how our community answered this question here<\/a>.

How would you redesign the carwash?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes you\u2019ll get questions that seem like they do not need improvement; \u201cif it ain\u2019t broke, don\u2019t fix it.\u201d But while that may be true for some things, companies like Uber and Airbnb, for example, have shown that every product or industry can be disrupted. After all, like Henry Ford said, \u201cIf I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like before, you need to put yourself in a customer-centric point of view. Think about the end-to-end user journey when someone goes to a car wash. What pain points aren\u2019t being addressed? Then think of creative solutions to these problems in a new car wash.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.productmanagementexercises.com\/600\/how-would-you-re-design-the-carwash\">See how our community answered this question here<\/a>.

How would you design a \u201cGoogle Refrigerator\u201d?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you learn one thing from this article about product design, it should always start with the user experience. In this instance, what is the refrigerator experience now, and what are its limitations? Once you have identified a few, you can begin to think of solutions to address them. The solutions should reflect Google\u2019s core business: data. In other words, the question could be rephrased as \u201chow would you design a fridge through the lens of data management or data organization?\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.productmanagementexercises.com\/1474\/how-would-you-design-a-%26quot-google-refrigerator%26quot\">See how our community answered this question here<\/a>.

But that doesn\u2019t mean libraries can\u2019t be improved! Just as before, start by thinking about the expectations and experiences of readers that go to the library. What problems do they have? For example, one solution for a post-COVID world could be an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NrmMk1Myrxc\" rel=\"nofollow\">Amazon Go-like experience<\/a>, where visitors are tracked through their apps and never encounter a librarian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.productmanagementexercises.com\/1985\/design-a-library-for-the-future\">See how our community answered this question here<\/a>.

If you have done your research, you\u2019ll know that some are highly successful and some aren\u2019t. It\u2019s up to you to find out what works for some of them that don\u2019t work for others.

Think of your target customer and translate their needs into new features for the application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.productmanagementexercises.com\/753\/how-would-you-design-a-bicycle-renting-app-for-tourists\">See how our community answered this question here<\/a>.

Build a product to buy and sell antiques<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like the previous question, you need to target the customers\u2019 wants and appropriately answer this question. In this example, however, you have two different groups: buyers and sellers. Each group has their unique needs and \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2016\/09\/know-your-customers-jobs-to-be-done\" rel=\"nofollow\">jobs to be done<\/a>.\u201d Try to solve the biggest problems for each group.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a complex answer that demands you bring together a broad audience of needs.
