Sample answer
“In my recent project at a local startup, I was tasked with redesigning the user interface for their mobile app. My role involved creating wireframes and high-fidelity prototypes using Figma. I collaborated closely with the development team to ensure design feasibility. One challenge was ensuring accessibility; I conducted user testing with diverse groups to gather feedback. As a result, we improved the app's usability, leading to a 30% increase in user retention. The team appreciated my attention to user experience and detail.”
