What did you learn, and what did you do next? A good answer covers - What you tested and what you expected - How you knew it failed, and how quickly - What you tried next because of what you learned ### Describe a time you moved quickly to ship something. How did you keep the quality acceptable? A good answer covers - Why speed mattered - What you checked and what you consciously left for later - The result and the follow-up work ### Tell me about a time you took ownership of a result that wasn't formally yours. A good answer covers - The result at risk and why you stepped in - What you did and how you worked with the actual owner - The outcome ### Tell me about a time you handled a difficult customer face to face. A good answer covers - What the customer was upset about - How you listened and what you offered - How it ended, and what you'd do the same next time ## Role and technical questions ### How would you design a virtual try-on feature that shows frames on a customer's face through the phone camera? A good answer covers - Face tracking to place a 3D frame model correctly as the head moves - Running smoothly on low-cost phones, with a fallback using photos - Privacy: what's processed on the phone and what's stored ### A customer orders glasses online with a prescription. Walk me through the systems needed to make and deliver them. A good answer covers - Capturing and checking the prescription and lens choices - Routing the order to manufacturing, quality checks and packing - Shipping, tracking and handling a remake if something is wrong ### Store sales in one city are flat while online sales there keep growing. How would you investigate? A good answer covers - Footfall versus conversion versus order value in stores - Whether online is taking sales from stores or growing the market - Store-level differences: staff, stock, location, local competition ### How would you decide where to open the next few stores in a city? A good answer covers - Demand signals: online orders by area, footfall, income levels - Rent, visibility and distance from existing stores - Starting with a few, measuring and adjusting the plan ### How would you reduce returns from customers whose glasses don't fit or don't suit them? A good answer covers - Finding the main return reasons from data and customer comments - Fixes before purchase: try-on, size guidance, better photos - Fixes after: easy adjustments in stores, and tracking the return rate ### How would you keep inventory accurate across warehouses, stores and the website? A good answer covers - One source of truth updated by every sale, transfer and return - Regular stock counts and reconciling differences - Buffers so the website doesn't sell what a store can't supply ### A customer in a store is unsure about spending more on lenses. How would you help them choose without pushing? A good answer covers - Asking about their prescription, screen time and lifestyle first - Explaining options and trade-offs in plain words - Respecting their budget and decision ## Why Lenskart? Fit and HR questions ### Why Lenskart? What do you think it does differently from a traditional optician? A good answer covers - Something specific: the store-plus-online model, technology or own manufacturing - What that changes for customers - What you'd like to contribute ### Have you used Lenskart's app or visited a store? What would you improve? A good answer covers - A specific moment in the journey - One improvement and who it helps - How you'd test it ### Some roles involve working in stores, on weekends, or moving to another city. How do you feel about that? A good answer covers - An honest answer about weekends and relocation - Any retail or customer-facing experience - Why the role is worth it to you ## Tips - Visit a store and browse the app before the interview, and notice how online and offline connect: try-on, eye tests, store pickup. - For business cases, use retail metrics: footfall, conversion, average order value, repeat purchase and returns. - Show speed with judgement: what you'd test small first, and how you'd know to scale it. - For tech roles, think about performance on low-cost phones and patchy networks. ## Practise it out loud A mock interview asks the way Lenskart's interviewers are known to, follows up on your answers and gives you a report.
