"Employment verifications often delay the process. To avoid the problem, I first tell the client to work with their employer to expect the inquiry and respond to the request. I will also try to get a specific name and number from the client so I can follow through. In addition, I start this process early so any delays won't effect our deadline."

I have found delays in appraisal reviews. I immediately submit the loan for appraisal review upon receipt of the completed appraisal to determine if any revisions are going to be needed. This helps from having any delay later when I submit a loan for final review.

This is a strong answer that relates to a common problem in the process and how you successfully work around it. You can help the interviewer understand the impact of this potential delay by explaining how much time it takes to complete the appraisal review at the beginning and how much time failing to complete an early appraisal review can ultimately add to the mortgage process.
