30: Tell me about a time you showed leadership skills.

Interviewer: Tell me about a time you showed leadership skills.

Candidate: In a previous project, our team faced a critical deadline, and we were falling behind due to some unforeseen technical issues. As the most experienced developer on the team, I stepped up to lead the effort. I organized a series of daily stand-up meetings to track progress and address any blockers. I also delegated tasks based on each team member’s strengths and provided guidance where needed. By fostering open communication and collaboration, we were able to solve the technical issues and catch up on the project timeline. Ultimately, we delivered the project on time and received positive feedback from the client.

Career Coach Tips:

  1. Initiative: Highlight your willingness to step up and take on leadership roles when necessary.
  2. Team Coordination: Emphasize how you coordinated and motivated the team to achieve the project goals.
