1. Tell us about a time when you disagreed with your Manager.  What did you do?

Usually when I don't understand what I am doing, I ask to make it clear.

My Manager knows many work processes, but not everything.

As such, sometimes when I ask my Manager something he doesn't know, he disagrees with my work process.

I explained with ticket links and briefed him on our last meeting.

Then he understood why I asked about it, and also my work process.

I think many issues between people can be solved by smooth communication and listening carefully.

2. Tell us about a time you faced a conflict at work and how you resolved it?

My team runs many services which need a variety of skill sets including back end and front end.

I have worked in the big data field, but one day my Manager told me to work on the front end service.

The reason for this is that he tried to make team members know how to run all services.

I had run spring services, even though I didn't know it well.

So, I watched a lot of internet lectures about Spring.

Spring tasks made me stressed, thinking that I wouldn't be able to finish it till the ETA.

( synonyms for stressed out. Most relevant. anxious · frazzled · nervous · strained · tensed · unnerved · worried.)

As a result I got stressed, but in the end I completed the task.

I explained to my Manager that if I could focus on what I can do better, it would be more efficient.

He also accepted my opinion and after that I could work for a big data task return.
