Summary
'How would you improve X product?' — similar to a whiteboard challenge but grounded in a real, existing product, testing your ability to diagnose real problems, not invent hypothetical ones.

- 2Practice narrowing to ONE strong recommendation instead of listing many shallow ones.
- 3Ground your critique in a specific user segment and their specific problem.
