Problem

Tell me about a situation where a customer demanded a feature or timeline that was technically infeasible. How did you manage expectations?

Explain how you assessed feasibility, communicated the constraint, and worked toward an acceptable alternative. Focus on your actions, how you handled customer pressure, how you aligned internal Cisco stakeholders, and the measurable outcome. Be prepared to discuss what you would do differently.
