Intercom interviews

“Then you’ll do a deep-dive into one of your projects with just the PM and EM.”

“We often see minimal design work samples that are just text links with some context about the work – and that’s great!”

“Next you’ll engage in a critique of a third-party software product (not Intercom) with two designers.”

“we’ll prompt you to consider how you might understand the problem and who’s affected by it, diverge and converge potential solutions, and sketch out a lightweight, low-fidelity solution”

“we used to ask people to do a design exercise at home. The Design team doesn’t do this now because it disadvantages people who don’t have time for extra work”

“So we’ll ask you open-ended questions like “How did this solve the problem?” and “What changed because of your work?””

“You can strengthen your application by reviewing our product designer job levels before you apply so you can see the expectations we have of designers.”
