Welcome to your interview.

The question is on your right: Find the Right User Segment. Take a moment with it first.

Talk your thinking through with me if you like - when you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes). Discussion and graded submissions share your five interviewer interactions, so spend them well.

You need to log in / sign up to chat or submit.

Problem

Scenario

You are evaluating a new use case for an existing software product. The team believes the idea is promising, but it is not clear which users would get the most value from it first. You need to decide where to focus discovery and early adoption.

Question

How do you identify the right user segment for a new use case?

What this tests

  • How you define segments beyond simple firmographics
  • How you connect a use case to a specific job to be done
  • How you validate pain intensity with research
  • How you judge which segment has the clearest value proposition first
