Q

Tell me about a time you failed.

A

Previously I was working as part of a team that failed to finish a project on time. We simply failed because we had not listened to the brief fully at the start of the project, and things got missed. As soon as we realized we made a mistake, we informed our manager, apologized, and discussed what we had learned from the experience to make sure it never happened again.
