Brief self-introduction tailored to this role.
Describe a time you had to work effectively with very different people (e.g., engineers, designers, sales). How did you adapt communication styles and resolve conflict?
Tell me about a breakthrough you drove—what was blocked, what you changed, and the measurable outcome.
Give and receive constructive feedback: a specific instance for each and the impact.
How do you build long-term relationships and trust across teams? Include mechanisms you keep using (cadences, docs, dashboards).

Use STAR structure and quantify results wherever possible.
