Remember to describe team-level strategies as well as those you would use to help a struggling team member. Interviewers appreciate candidates willing to deploy a custom approach in situations that require extra effort.

"One of the main strategies I use in a remote setting is a daily check in meeting. I use this as a quick opportunity for everyone to make commitments, be accountable for their work, and communicate what they need from one another. I find this helps avoid confusion and ensures I can step in when the communicated tasks are out of alignment with deliverable timelines.

I also check in with my teammates frequently to see how they are progressing. I customize this to the person and their needs. Some people are always on task and our conversation serves as an opportunity to let them know I am there to support them and that they are valued. Others need to be reminded of their commitments and need to collaborate on strategies to get all of their work done. I make sure they are paired up with mentors or seniors who can train and assist as necessary.

Finally, I review project plans, deliverable strategies, and goals with the team regularly. I find that it helps to make sure that we are all on the same page and stay aligned. These three strategies help me to ensure the productivity of my team in a remote setting."
