Product Case - Evernote

Present an idea on how to improve Evernote.
The goal of the exercise is both to get a sense of your strategic thinking, as well as the specific types of documents you would produce during the product management process.
In a slide, present your strategic vision for Evernote and where you would like us to go in the future. You will present to a group of PMs, designers, and engineers. Typically candidates create a brief 8-15 slide presentation. Not all the example materials have to be specific to the idea presented. You can simply provide illustrations of the types of materials you would use to convey the ideas and requirements. We’d love your slides to also include a brief background about yourself.
