Below is the design task I was asked to do: Choose a favourite startup of yours (could be Butternut if you'd like) and a particular UX flow of their digital product that you think could be improved upon. Imagine you are coaching a junior designer who has just presented this flow for a design critique in a shared Figma file before being worked on in an upcoming development sprint. You've been working on another area of the product, so aren't in the weeds of this flow, but you've a sense that the junior designer has dived right in and not thought through everything. Provide a thoughtful design critique for this junior designer and give direction as to how they should think about and improve the flow. Detail out: a) What questions you would ask (and why) b) What assumptions you are making c) Given your assumptions, what you would suggest the junior designer does to improve the flow. Imagine you are giving direct (but asynchronous) feedback to your designer here. Just as you complete the critique, your designer has called in sick, you think they might be out for a few days, but the dev team is just about to start work on this new flow in their next sprint. Task: Put your critique into practice and produce a high-fidelity prototype or design file that the dev team can work from to build the flow. Deliverables: Ideally, you will share your task in a shared Figma but a PDF, or Sketch file is fine too.
