Practice these questions directly. An editable copy is yours to change; the original stays unchanged.
Walk me through your approach to onboarding a new customer. What does the process look like and what are the key milestones?
How do you measure customer health? What metrics and signals do you track to identify at-risk accounts?

You’re helping onboard a customer whose rollout has stalled. The customer says they may pause unless you agree to a new deadline. You can help with onboarding, but the account owner approves changes to commitments. When would you involve the account owner, and what would you include in your handoff?
How do you collect and act on customer feedback? Give me an example where feedback led to a meaningful change.
Tell me about a time you had to present a complex idea to stakeholders. How did you make it accessible?
