25. Describe a difficult project and how you overcame it?
How to Answer
The candidate should be honest about a difficult time in their job and why this posed a tricky project for them. However, they should ultimately be positive and confident that they can recover in the future from mistakes like this and know that they have enough knowledge on the subject matter to recover smoothly.

Answer Example
"I once was a voice reporter for a court case and I had never covered court before. It moved very fast and used terminology I was not yet familiar with. However, I reviewed my work after the court was over and made sure to correct any errors I found. In the future, I want to make sure I research topics I am unfamiliar with before I transcribe them."
