Technical practice
How would you set a roadmap for agentic support features on SearchUnify?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: explain how you would connect customer support needs and internal productivity goals to a product vision, then use feedback and evidence to prioritize features. Discuss trade-offs between customer value, feasibility and measurable impact.
How would you define requirements for an autonomous support workflow?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: map the customer journey, the tasks an agent may perform and the points where a person should take over. Describe clear requirements for successful resolution, failures and human–AI collaboration.
How would you turn a RAG pipeline and knowledge linking into a support feature?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: explain how relevant knowledge would be found and used to answer a support question, including how you would evaluate whether the answer is grounded and useful. Discuss the trade-off between broader retrieval and irrelevant or inaccurate responses.
How would you evaluate LLM orchestration for case summarization?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: describe the intended user, the inputs and the quality criteria for a useful case summary. Consider prompt design, workflow steps, consistency and when a person should review an output.
How would you measure whether a support agent is succeeding?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: define deflection rate, resolution accuracy, latency and proactive intervention rate in terms of observable outcomes. Explain why a higher deflection rate alone may not indicate better support if accuracy or the customer experience declines.
What would you investigate if an agent became slower or less accurate?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: segment the affected journeys and inspect changes in retrieval, prompts, workflow steps and response timing before proposing a fix. Explain how you would compare improvements against both accuracy and latency rather than optimizing either in isolation.
How would you validate and prioritize a proposed self-service feature?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: formulate a customer-support hypothesis, gather customer and prospect feedback, and specify what evidence would support or weaken it. Compare its expected impact with alternative features and use an experiment or measured release to guide the next decision.
How would GDPR and SOC 2 considerations affect an AI support feature?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: identify where customer or case data enters the workflow and questions to resolve with security and compliance partners before release. Discuss how data handling and access decisions could shape product requirements without assuming a particular implementation.
How would you plan UAT for a conversational support agent?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: propose representative customer journeys, acceptance criteria and tests for incorrect answers, unsuccessful handoffs and other failures. Explain how findings would be triaged into the backlog and affect release readiness.
How would you assess an integration with a customer support platform?
What to coverSuggested answer focus: use a platform named in the posting, such as Zendesk or Salesforce, to describe the support information and actions an agent would need. Discuss workflow fit, access boundaries and how you would validate the integration with users; do not assume a specific integration already exists.
Behavioural practice
Tell me about a time you aligned technical and design partners on a product decision.
What to coverSuggested answer focus: give the situation, your actions with engineering, data science or design, and the result. Explain how you made competing concerns visible and reached a decision.
Describe a time customer feedback changed your product priorities.
What to coverSuggested answer focus: state the original hypothesis and what customers or prospects revealed, then explain the action you took. Close with the result and how you judged whether the change helped.
Tell me about a time you responded to a product quality issue after testing or release.
What to coverSuggested answer focus: describe the situation, your role in diagnosing and coordinating a response, and the result. Include how you communicated the issue and adjusted acceptance criteria or follow-up work.
Describe a time you helped explain a complex product to a go-to-market team.
What to coverSuggested answer focus: identify the audience and the product challenge, then describe how you worked with Sales, Customer Success or marketing. Explain the resulting demo, positioning or message and what you learned from its reception.
Tell me about a time you managed a delivery trade-off during a sprint.
What to coverSuggested answer focus: set out the competing priorities, the action you took with the team during planning or backlog work, and the result. Explain how you kept the decision tied to product goals and communicated any change in scope.
