Interviewing • If you've previously reported to multiple supervisors at the same time, how did you get to know each person's preferences and juggle conflicting priorities? • Tell me about a workplace conflict you were involved in, either with your peers or someone else in the company. How did you manage that conflict, and were you able to resolve it? • Describe the most challenging supervisor you've ever worked with. What was the most difficult thing about that relationship from your perspective, and how did you manage it? • What would a previous boss say is the area that you need to work on most? Have you taken steps to improve in this area, and if so, what have you tried to change? • Tell me about a day when everything went wrong.
