Learning Agility and Rapid Iteration Questions

Assesses how quickly and effectively a candidate can learn unfamiliar technologies or domains and iterate toward a working solution. Interviewers expect concrete examples of rapid ramp up, how the candidate prioritized learning tasks, strategies for prototyping and validating ideas, how feedback was incorporated, and the measurable outcomes of short learning cycles. Good responses highlight practical learning techniques, experiments, trade offs made under time pressure, and how lessons were institutionalized to avoid repeated mistakes.
