Tell me about a time you had to fix someone else's issue
Asked in the onsite stage. The interviewer is probing whether you take ownership beyond your assigned work, clarify an ambiguous problem, and help resolve it without blaming the person who created it. A strong response should explain the original issue, how you prioritized it against your own responsibilities, how you collaborated with the owner, and what changed afterward. Focus on your specific actions and the measurable result. Include how you prevented recurrence or helped the other person become more effective.
