Problem

Please tell me about a time when you had a project in trouble and how you handled it. This question was asked in the virtual on site stage. The interviewer is assessing whether you take ownership, diagnose problems quickly, make sound trade-offs, and align stakeholders when delivery is at risk. Use one specific example, explain the stakes and your role, describe the actions you personally took, and quantify the result where possible. Include what you learned and what you would do differently.
