Collaboration and Mentoring Questions

Demonstrate interpersonal effectiveness within engineering teams and across functions. Candidates should be able to provide examples of mentoring and growing junior engineers, conducting constructive code reviews, resolving technical disagreements, writing clear design documents and proposals, facilitating cross functional trade offs, giving and receiving feedback, and contributing to team decision making and culture. Interviewers assess evidence of influence without authority, clarity of communication, and approaches to scaling knowledge through documentation and teaching.
