Tell me about the most challenging problem you encountered in your professional career.
Working in the online mortgage lending industry, you may have technical issues, customer complaints, or other obstacles to overcome. If you are new to the industry, think of a relevant challenge, whether in another position or school. Give the interviewer an example of a time you displayed remarkable patience and strong communication skills.
"Last year, our company went through a major acquisition. Everything changed, from our internal software to the company hierarchy. It was like starting a brand new job overnight. The biggest challenge was taking care of my clients and keeping them happy during the transition. I worked a lot of overtime hours and made a greater amount of customer service calls to ensure that my existing clients were minimally affected by the acquisition."
