Describe a time you had a conflict with a teammate (e.g., disagreement on technical direction, priorities, code quality, or ownership).
Please cover:
-
What was the context and what was at stake?
-
What exactly was the disagreement?
-
What actions did you take to resolve it?
-
What was the outcome and what did you learn?
Follow-ups:
-
How do you handle conflict when you’re not the decision-maker?
-
How do you handle conflict when you believe the other person is objectively wrong?
-
What would you do differently next time?
