Project Deep Dive

Prepare two high-impact case studies that highlight your design process end-to-end. Focus on complex projects where you made a measurable impact, emphasizing your approach to problem-solving, collaboration, and strategic design thinking.

Give us a sense of the breadth and depth of your work.

Help us understand your process. For example, you can show intermediate work on the way to an outcome, alternatives you considered, or include past flows, mock-ups, or even old pics of whiteboard sessions where applicable.

Don’t forget this is also about how you paint a picture and are able to engage the audience through thoughtful storytelling.

Tips ✨

Your case studies should include:

Briefly describe the company, project context, the business problem, and why it was critical to solve.

Define the target user, their needs, and how your solution balanced user needs with business goals.

Share your end-to-end design approach, including research, ideation, prototyping, testing, iterations, and key challenges.

Highlight your strategic vision and ability to shape design direction, aligning with broader goals.

Demonstrate how you collaborated with cross-functional teams, including product, engineering, and leadership, and influenced product vision.

Quantify results and share success metrics to demonstrate measurable outcomes.

Reflect on successes, challenges, lessons learned, and how they shaped your design approach.

Present a clear, engaging narrative using visuals.

Throughout your presentation, you should plan for questions and assume this will be a dynamic conversation. Aim to leave 10-15 minutes at the end for Q&A.

There are a few important themes that we’ll be looking out for throughout the entire presentation. More than anything the team is curious about how you think, especially when you come across complex problems and how you break them down. We’re curious about the frameworks and principles you apply when making decisions, and your general approach. In particular how you deal with trade-offs and how you solve for various constraints or tensions, as well as your empathy for the end user.

Note on Video Recording

If this is your first time presenting with Zoom, you will need to grant your browser permission to record in order to screen share. It will prompt you to quit and restart the application.

A few members of the team might not be able to make the presentation, so we want to ask if it'd be okay to record this session so they can watch at a later time. No worries if not, but please do let us know.
