What is your experience with user interaction design techniques?
"I am not a user experience or user interaction design expert, but I have taken several classes in this space to improve my ability to make some of the same considerations an interaction designer would make. We do not have UX designers on staff at my current company, but I like to ensure the solutions we develop are in line with the basic standards. I have experience developing mock-ups and wireframes and using them to gather user feedback before major features are developed. I realize user interaction design is critically important to Snapchat, and I look forward to working with experts in the field if hired for the product manager role."
Designers play a crucial role in helping Snapchat deliver its mission. Product managers collaborate with designers closely to develop quality features that delight Snapchat users. Interviewers ask this question to determine a candidate's level of design expertise.
Remember to demonstrate your willingness and excitement to partner with designers if hired for the product manager role. While some product managers have experience designing their own features, design experts play a critical role at Snapchat, and product managers will be expected to work closely with them to develop and deliver quality products.
