Tell me about a time when you offered a solution to a difficult problem your team was facing. What was the outcome?

"A PM came to my development team expressing that they needed a way to track the sales of a specific instrument over a 3-, 6-, and 9-month period and come up with a forecast of how it may do in the next year. I had previously developed an application using Python that I felt would work for this purpose. Once suggesting this tool to the team and making some simple changes to the programing, they were able to get the data they needed quickly and submitted me for a recognition for my creative problem-solving."

"My team was contacted by a company who informed us that they had not received a very important piece of equipment in their order, that they would need asap. I recommended that we could overnight the package and offered to take it to the post office. Another team member remembered that our sister company, located closer to the customer, had been able to supply some equipment for us previously and recommended that we could call them. As the coordinator, I offered to call and arrange the delivery to the customer. They were able to get the part there same-day and my co-workers recommendation saved us time and money!"
