Problem

How do you handle tight deadlines?

Please answer with a specific example from your experience. Explain how you assessed priorities, communicated trade-offs, coordinated with others, and protected quality when time was limited. We are looking for a structured STAR response that shows ownership, sound judgment, and a clear result rather than a general statement about working harder.
