- Describe how you would help a customer get more out of Notion's AI agents.
What they're looking for
This checks whether you can turn an AI product into real value for a customer. The interviewer listens for a process that starts with the customer's current workflow and pain, picks a few tasks where agents help most, sets up a safe rollout, and measures the result. It also tests how fluent you are with AI tools, which the company weighs even for customer-facing roles.
What works
- Start by asking about the customer's workflow: who does what, where the time goes and what goes wrong.
- Pick one or two repetitive, multi-step tasks for agents, such as turning meeting notes into tasks or keeping a project tracker up to date.
- Explain how you'd set it up so people trust it: clear permissions, a human review step at first, and a small pilot team.
- Say how you'd measure success, such as hours saved per week or fewer missed handoffs, and how you'd expand from there.
What hurts
- Leading with features instead of the customer's problem.
- Promising that agents can run everything with no human check.
- Ignoring permissions and data access, which customers care about a lot.
