  1. You are assigned to a team with a member who consistently misses deadlines. The team's performance is suffering. What should you do?

    Answer: Talk privately with the team member to understand the issue and offer support

    A private, supportive conversation addresses the root cause while preserving team cohesion.

  2. You are asked to present findings at a company meeting, but you realize the data you were given contains errors. The meeting is in two hours. What do you do?

    Answer: Notify your manager immediately, correct what you can, and disclose any remaining limitations in the presentation

    Transparency about data quality protects your credibility and allows leadership to make informed decisions.

  3. Two colleagues on your team are in a heated disagreement that is affecting team morale. You are not their supervisor. What is the best action?

    Answer: Encourage both parties to speak with each other privately or suggest mediation through a manager

    Suggesting direct dialogue or mediation helps resolve conflict without taking sides or escalating unnecessarily.

  4. You are given a new assignment but have not received clear instructions. Deadlines are approaching. What should you do?

    Answer: Proactively ask your manager for clarification before starting

    Clarifying instructions before starting prevents rework and ensures the task meets expectations.

  5. You overhear a manager making an inappropriate comment about an employee's personal life. What is the most appropriate response?

    Answer: Report the incident to HR following your company's reporting process

    Using established HR reporting channels is the proper and safe way to address inappropriate workplace behavior.

  6. Your manager asks you to do something that you believe may violate company policy, but you are not certain. What should you do?

    Answer: Clarify your concern with your manager and, if unresolved, check with HR or compliance

    Raising the concern directly and escalating if needed ensures compliance without being insubordinate.

  7. You are the newest member of a team and believe you have a better approach to a recurring process. How should you propose your idea?

    Answer: Bring the idea to your manager with supporting reasoning and ask for feedback

    Presenting ideas through proper channels with evidence shows initiative while respecting team norms.
