This set of behavioral prompts evaluates ownership, communication, conflict resolution, adaptability, and the ability to receive and act on feedback, targeting leadership and interpersonal competencies relevant to software engineering.

Prepare responses for these behavioral prompts:

  1. Proudest project: Describe the project you’re most proud of and why.
  2. Conflict: Tell me about a time you had a conflict with a peer/cross-functional partner and how you resolved it.
  3. Ambiguous project: Describe a situation where requirements were unclear and you had to drive clarity.
  4. Peer/manager feedback: What feedback have you received from peers or managers? What did you do with it?

Your answers should be concrete, technically grounded, and demonstrate ownership, communication, and impact.
