      How to Answer

      This type of question is known as a behavioral question. The interviewer will ask about a situation that occurred in one of your previous roles to understand how you would react if something similar were to happen after you are hired. The best way to respond to a situational question is using the STAR framework. You state the Situation, describe the Task you were required to complete, discuss the Actions you took, and talk about the Results you obtained.

      Answer Example

      "In my most recent job, I was faced with an ethical dilemma which I had to resolve. I was collaborating with one of my fellow network architects to develop a network topology for a new team the company was onboarding. My colleague produced a document of the topology they used with a previous employer and recommended we copy it. Since the document was labeled confidential and proprietary, I was reluctant to use it. I recommend to my colleague that we use the document as a reference and create our own topology. They agreed, and we designed a network that was both efficient and effective without violating any confidentiality or ethical issues."
