Whiteboarding Exercise

Last updated:

What is it?

You’ll be given a design problem, and you’ll asked to draw a solution on the whiteboard. They’ll ask you questions while you sketch out ideas and flows.

It’s to test how you think about design and how detail your sketch can be.

How it works

They’ll give you a design challenge like: “Design an experience for a concert ticket system”

How to do it

Assumption

  1. Target Audience: Who will use it?
  2. Context: mobile app, web app or kiost. Where will people be using it?

Sketch out the entire experience

Home -> Payment Method Screen -> ? -> ? -> ?

They will ask questions like: “What if my credit card is declined?”, “What if I want my friend to sit next to me but I don’t know if they can attend or not that day?“.
