5⟩ Explain HOW DO YOU USE DIFFERENT COMMUNICATION TOOLS IN DIFFERENT SITUATIONS?

When you work on a remote team, there’s no chance to chat in the hall between meetings or catch up on the latest project during a shared ride to the office. So virtual communication will be absolutely fundamental to you getting your job done. And you’ll be using all kinds of tools to communicate – email, online chat, video hangouts, project management software, etc.

By asking this question about the tools and situations, your interviewer wants to know if you are familiar with them and savvy about what to use when.

After a couple of minutes of being removed from the group I discuss the misbehavior with the child and provide guidance for selecting the right response or behavior the next time"

This is an opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge of child development :

"Children who behave aggressively at this age are often unable to verbalize their feelings because they lack the language skills."
