```
### Clarifying Questions
- If the year spanned two roles or a team change, should I cover both, or focus on my current one?
- Would you prefer a short overview of the whole year that you can drill into, or a deeper pass on one or two projects?
- Are you most interested in product outcomes, how I worked with other teams, or how I grew in the role?
### What a Strong Answer Covers
- A brief frame of the role, the product area and what the year was meant to achieve
- A few selected pieces of work, each with the speaker's own contribution, a key decision and a measurable result
- A setback or miss and what the speaker changed because of it
- How the speaker's scope, skills or influence on others grew over the year
- A concise, structured delivery that ends by linking the year to this role and offering to go deeper
### Follow-up Questions
- If you could restart one of those projects, what would you do differently?
- What feedback did you get from your manager or peers this year, and what did you change as a result?
- Which part of this year's work is most relevant to this role, and why?
