Hi Yobi! Just wanted to let you know that I landed a great opportunity thanks to this very video! Loved the tips and guidance given by you and it really helped me a lot during my whiteboarding challenge! Thank you so much, and I'm so happy that I found your content💙
Congratulations James!!! This is great news, and thank you so much for sharing with me. I'm glad to hear you find my videos helpful. It has been a lot going on, and life can be stressful sometimes. But your message just made my day, and I feel super energized to create my next video. 💕
@@yobi321 Thanks Yobi, couldn't have done it without your help(not even exaggerating here), glad that I made your day! You should know that there are many out there like me who are really grateful for all your hard work and content!
If anyone really is doing this plant care app, I have so many ideas already, just by watching this conversation during the WBC! Loving that it's very much a conversation, an exchange between interviewee and interviewer :) Thanks for the insightful video!
Great to hear. I always think WBC should be a conversation. The interviewer is not there to create a stressful or confusing atmosphere, but to guide people through the challenge and understand how you think.
Inspiring. Hoping to see more comments regarding how the interviewer felt about the interviewee / any improvement suggestions to the interviewee etc. in the end of the video. Thanks!
Does anyone think the conversation went too deep for an MVP? Especially in the ideation part? If the whiteboard challenge requires making a wireframe how much time should I spend in the brainstorming session? The role for a Product Designer Please help!
great observation. regarding your question on how much time to spend for making a wireframe, I think it depends on the total time you have for the whiteboard session. my typical approach is 1/3 discover and define problem; 1/3 develop: lay out user flow/wireframe; 1/3 deliver solutions. feel free to iterate it and create a version that works for you!
Thanks!In my opinion, it is interviewers' job to support candidates during white board sessions, so they can better focus on the exercise. But it really depends as every interviewer is different.
@@yobi321 Thank you for replying,I would love if you can did a video on OKR or manage exceptation. I wonder if you ever have experience with OKR especially for designers. How designer should set their KR and what to put into consideration while setting them. And the second is, how us as a UI/UX designer can manage expectation and communication that better.
I'm wondering how you give a solution for a problem without knowing the roots of the problem ? thats why she ask too many questions . seems like you knows everything , jack of all trades .
Not really the point. Most people will have thought of the solution; the solution isn't the hard part. The point of this exercise is to show your thinking (ex. this interviewee is considering who is the user, what are the business goals, what is the platform, how do we define success, what is the journey, where are the problems in the journey that the app can solve) and to show how you work with other people.

Thank you for sharing the video.
You're so welcome. Thanks for watching!
This is the best video so far to help us learn acing the whiteboard! Thank you for making it. May I ask what name is the countdown timer?
Hi Lena, thank you so much! The countdown timer actually comes with FigJam, which was the tool this designer used for the whiteboard exercise.
Great video !
Isn't the interviewer too supportive compared to real life interviews ?

This challenge is difficult for me
Thanks for the feedback Damian. could you share a bit more about which made this challenge difficult for you?
Thank You! ❤️🤘
the lady writing the white board asked the interviewer way too many questions almost as if she needed ideas
good observation. but as an interviewer, I actually don't mind answering questions, and usually would prefer this to having too few questions.

I had this already thought out 5 seconds - seems like the only difficult thing is learning the tools
