Welcome to your interview for the Software Engineer role at SCAN Health Plan.
The question is on your right: Prioritize Multiple Urgent Issues. 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. You have three graded attempts to score 7/10 or better.
You are managing delivery for a live network software program when several urgent issues hit at once. A customer-reported defect is affecting a subset of users, a critical integration dependency is slipping, and leadership is asking for a status update on a committed release. You need to decide what gets attention first without losing control of delivery.
How do you prioritize tasks when faced with multiple urgent issues?
