Kevin's Feedback

You have chosen an excellent example to include in your answer to this question. It shows that you are able to think outside the box and be resourceful when you might not initially have everything you need to resolve an issue. These are positive attributes that the interviewer will be happy you have. Nice job! I've adjusted your answer slightly to highlight your direct contributions to problem solving the issue, and highlighting where you came up with the answers.

I was working as a Structural Engineer on a project where we were installing the first of several small wind turbines we were going to mount on telecom towers. Contrary to the information we’d previously researched, the specifications provided by the manufacturer revealed these turbines were too big to be mounted on the towers directly. Morale took a hit, and several of our team threw up their hands and were ready to give up. But I didn’t let that stop us. So I worked on coming up with a support structure as the mount and generated a preliminary design based on my revised analysis. My findings were accurate, and with this repeatable adaptation, the entire project was a success.
