Maya Henderson

Senior Product Designer

Berlin, Germany · Open to hybrid roles

I care about building things people can trust — the interfaces, the teams, and the decisions behind them. I like teams that treat clarity as kindness.

Workplace Judgment

Prefers transparent disagreement over consensus theater

Across two scenarios, Maya raised objections in writing and invited counter-arguments before decisions were locked. She named tradeoffs explicitly rather than hedging.

Structures ambiguity by narrowing scope first

Given open-ended prompts, Maya described starting by writing the smallest working definition of the problem, then expanding once it held.

Your written argument stays private unless you explicitly share it.

    Reason: missing context

    "The example I gave was specifically about a legal-compliance conversation where the decision was already made. I was framing the mechanics because the decision itself was fixed."

Coaching from your last session

Notes just for you

These do not appear on the employer view.

strength

You made your reasoning legible

In two responses you named a tradeoff before stating your position. This tends to shorten discussions and builds trust with reviewers.

development

Consider naming what you'd need to change your mind

You explained your positions well, but rarely told the interviewer what evidence would move you. Naming this makes disagreement easier for others.

practice

Try the one-paragraph problem statement out loud

You referenced writing this down. Practicing it out loud, in under 45 seconds, is a strong preparation for live interviews.

reflection

Where does 'clarity as kindness' hold, and where does it strain?

Your intro uses this phrase. A reflection on a moment it strained — for example, delivering difficult feedback — would round out the profile.
