10. Tell me about a time you missed a deadline. How did you handle it?
• Be honest about the circumstances, without placing blame.
•  Highlight your communication skills to mitigate the impact.
Example for a Graphic Designer:
"I missed a project deadline due to an unexpected technical issue. I immediately informed the client, explained the situation, and provided a new timeline. I worked overtime to ensure the project was completed as soon as possible, which the client appreciated. This experience taught me the importance of proactive communication and contingency planning."

11. Give an example of when you worked with someone difficult. How did you manage the situation?
• Testing your EQ
• Highlight the importance of communication and finding common ground to work together.

Example for a Team Leader:
"I had a team member who was often uncooperative and negative. I scheduled a one-on-one meeting to understand his concerns and provide feedback. By addressing his issues and finding common ground, we improved our working relationship and team dynamics. Open communication and empathy were key to resolving the conflict.

12. Why do you want to leave your current role?
• Focus on what you hope to gain from the new role (e.g challenge/learning).
• Don't badmouth your last company.

Example for a Business Analyst:
"I've enjoyed my time at my current company, but I'm seeking new challenges and opportunities for growth. I believe this role at your company offers the chance to work on more complex projects and further develop my analytical skills, which aligns with my career goals and desire for professional advancement."
