A story about pressure or a deadline

Interviews nearly always ask about this, and none of your stories covers it yet. Answer four quick prompts in a sentence or two each. Think of a time at work, study or anywhere else.

1

Where you were and what the problem was. One or two sentences.

2

Your part in it, not the team’s.

3

Say “I”: what you decided, said or built. This is the part interviewers care about most.

4

The outcome, with a number if you have one. It’s fine if it isn’t perfect.

The question it answers

“Tell me about a time you worked to a tight deadline.”

Hakkiri puts your four answers in the order interviewers want: the result first, then how you got there. Only your facts: nothing is added.

Fill in what you did, at least.
