Interview Preparation: Tell me about your greatest failure? Sample 2 – Mid Level
One of my mistakes was that I agreed to support US operations team from India. This was in parallel with supporting Indian team in day time. So, my shift started 5AM in the morning. I used to be on laptop from 5AM to 9AM. Then I used to go to office, stay there for 9 hours, come back around 7PM and then again support US team till 11PM. Indian office didn’t allow me to work from home and it was mandatory to be in office for 8 hours.
This completely freaked my out. My performance and quality of output degraded. It was too late before I realized it.
Once I realized, I moved out of the project. Then went into a project which has proper work hours.
My lesson learnt from this incident are:
One: I never over commit.
Two: I do less things – prioritise things of importance.
Three: Do them properly.
