⟩ Explain me a time when you didn't understand a project. Or, describe a time when you felt like you didn't know what you were doing or what a boss/client/SME wanted. Or, what would you do if someone handed you a Powerpoint or you had to take an ILT course and make it e-learning?
☛ Several different ways to phrase it - some more direct than others, but essentially they're all looking for the same thing - what's your thought process and how do you go about gaining clarity, building a project, establish milestones, and evaluate. It's basically question 1 all over again - but this time masked under some confusing language or presented as a situation where you are lost and without direction. Again, a great opportunity for you to share what you know, to share problems you helped solve. And, a great chance to talk about how you work.
☛ Alas, it's also a way to shoot yourself in the foot. Maybe you are uncomfortable without clear directions, I still am sometimes. Maybe you just don't have enough time with someone to really gauge their personality. Maybe, you judge others too quickly to form a really accurate picture of who they are and how they approach things. Anyway you cut it, there are times we all get over our heads, when we get lost, we don't know what the other person wants. So, it's essential when answering this type of question to gain clarity from the interviewer as a way to demonstrate you know what they're looking for, and to focus on actions more than thoughts. Oh - and again - don't go bashing anyone!
