How would you improve Flipkart's search experience?

Framework
clarify goal → segment → prioritise → measure
Model answer
Clarify the goal first — search-to-purchase, or search-to-discovery? Then segment users (repeat vs new, category browser vs exact-need). I'd focus on the exact-need cohort with better misspelling tolerance and instant filters, because they have highest revenue-per-search.
What great candidates actually do
- Never jump to features — the interviewer wants to see structured thinking.
- Ground every improvement in a metric that would move.
- Say what you would NOT do — that shows product judgment.
Traps to avoid
- Naming the solution before the problem — always restate the goal in one sentence first.
- Answering without structure — pick a framework out loud, then execute it.
- Skipping the trade-off — every strong answer names what you would NOT do and why.
