Recently on job interview i was given 2 behavioral questions: 1) Your team was given a very important analysis project, and at the end when results were ready to be presented to CEO, you have different opinion on result that they are incorrect . What would you do? 2) You are an intern, whose internship is about to end in a month and then there will be review of your job based on what u will or not receive a full time job offer. So you have a month to prepare your presentation and show it to the managers on what you have accomplished, and you already planned everything out in calendar counting on a month time, but all of a sudden managers have urgent travel plans in a week. So now you only have one week to prepare, what would you do? My answers were like that and i got rejected 1) i would try to deliver my opinion to my colleagues and try to check on my concern, too. Whether its valid or not. 2) i would just adapt my schedule from 1 month to 1 week, by prioritizing most important things for my review
Is there a question I'm missing in this post?
How would u answer them?
For 2, I would say something like raise your concern but have a proposal ready. Something like reduce your scope and or get help from other people. Or have another manager take over and review in a month. Anything really. Just trying to cram everything in 1 month doesn't show initiative and agility.
#1 request delay to determine if there is merit to the issue. If thats not possible present to ceo with early caveat of potential situation and will provide update.
