Can you tell me about a time when a client rejected your solution and how you responded?

When you respond to this type of question, remain positive and focus your response on what you might have learned or how you turned a negative situation into a positive one. You can frame your answer using the situation, task, action, and response (STAR) interview method. This will help you organize your answers and keep them positive and upbeat.

"Right after I graduated and took my first job, I was tasked to respond to a demanding client's challenging needs. After delivering the project, the client told my manager they were unsatisfied with the application's interface. Rather than redesign the interface, I suggested using a version that the client was already familiar with. The client liked the idea, and we were able to finish the project with only some minor revisions."
