Welcome to your interview.
The question is on your right: Leading Signals of Operational Failure. Take a moment with it first.
Talk your thinking through with me if you like - when you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes). Discussion and graded submissions share your five interviewer interactions, so spend them well.
You are managing a product or engineering team and want earlier warning signs than customer impact or missed business goals. The team already looks at outcome metrics, but those usually move after the underlying operating issues have been building for a while.
What leading indicators would you watch to know a team is heading toward an operational failure before it shows up in results?
