What is the last project you worked on?

"In my current role, I work for a large company that recently decided to close down one of its manufacturing plants. I was put in charge of managing this closure. When I ran an initial RAID analysis, I realized that there were multiple parts to this complex project. Namely, attempting to sell the plant and its related buildings, managing the organizational change from a human relations perspective, finding alternative sources for the materials the plant used to supply, and closing down any parts of the plant's complex that weren't sold.

I used Trello software to keep all of my teams on one page, to communicate their responsibilities, and to notify them of changes during the project. Ultimately, I kept the multimillion project under budget and within its 18-month timeline. We sold part of the complex and closed the rest while maintaining a consistent supply of materials from other sources. We also coordinated with the employee union, replaced certain employees, and eliminated redundant positions. I believe that all the skills I used during this project, which was large and complex, can be successfully applied to many other project types."

Describe the basic details of your current project or the last project you managed. Keep in mind that your time with your interviewer is limited, so stick to the most important aspects of the project such as the main goal(s), budget, team size, length of time, industry, customer/stakeholders, etc. If possible, relate your work to what you believe you would be working on if hired for the open position.
