What this question tests

Personal product opinion and improvement thinking: can you name a specific feature you value and propose a credible, scoped improvement to it.

How to approach it

  1. Pick a specific Facebook feature, e.g. Groups, Marketplace, or Events, rather than a vague 'the News Feed in general'.
  2. State a concrete reason you like it, tied to a real personal or plausible use case.
  3. Identify one specific limitation you've noticed, e.g. difficulty finding genuinely active groups versus dormant ones.
  4. Propose a targeted fix, e.g. surfacing group activity level (posts per week) prominently before joining, to set better expectations.
  5. Explain the tradeoff: showing low-activity signals honestly might reduce join rates for smaller, legitimate but less-active groups.
  6. Define how you'd measure the fix's success, e.g. post-join retention or engagement in newly joined groups.
