Interview Question for Dependability

Are you dependable or looking for someone who is? ⭐ This trait is vital for most roles, and this question is a good way to assess fit. Everyone has had a time (likely earlier in their career) where they took on too much, prioritized incorrectly or underestimated how much time something would take.
⠀
Good answers to this question will include how the candidate communicated the issue to their manager, other stakeholders or team members, what their process for prioritization (or re-prioritzation!) was, the result of the situation, and what they would do differently to avoid an issue like this in the future.
⠀
⚠Yellow or red flags may be obvious for this one, but include dropping the ball, not communicating properly, a bad customer outcome, and not having a solution to avoid this issue in the future.
