  • 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.
