Sample Answer
Situation: At a previous company, I was asked to “improve customer experience this quarter” across marketing, support, and product with no direct authority. Task: Clarify the goal, align stakeholders, and deliver measurable CX improvements in 90 days. Action: In week 1, I ran a 90‑minute alignment workshop using a simple OKR template in Miro and Jira Discovery, turning the vague goal into: “Increase NPS from 34 to 42 and reduce first‑response time by 20%.” Week 2, we mapped the top 3 customer journeys in Miro from Zendesk, HubSpot, and Mixpanel data. Week 3–4, we defined 5 Jira epics (onboarding email revamp, help‑center search, in‑app guidance, SLA tuning, CSAT survey) and set weekly dashboards in Looker. Result: Within the quarter, NPS rose to 45 (+11), first‑response time dropped 27%, and churn decreased 8%.
