Problem solving skills

Problems will arise in every business sector. When a problem occurs, strong problem-solving skills can be hugely beneficial for the company. Problem solving interview questions are used to test candidate’s approach to difficult and unusual situations before employers make a decision. Problem-solving questions will also focus on how well you can manage different points of view and how you deal with conflict. Hiring manager will see how you analyze a situation or what steps you take to understand the issue. These problem-solving questions will vary across industries but are typically focused on your experiences analyzing a problem or situation. Since most of the given conflicts in the questions are given extreme positions on both sides, a good response probably lies somewhere in the middle of these two extremes. Remember your communication skills are being assessed, so how well you explain your decision-making process is also important.

Sample Sentences

Vocabulary

I sometimes have problems knowing when to ask for help. For example, when I was doing my project I tried out an unfamiliar technique and ended up making a mistake. If I had asked for an advice from my boss beforehand, I’d have saved myself some repeated work. I’m glad to be a person who takes initiative, but since then I’ve been much more careful about judging when I need to stop and get advice.
저는 가끔씩 언제 도움을 청해야 할지에 대해 어려움을 겪습니다. 예를 들어, 제가 익숙하지 않은 기술로 프로젝트를 진행하고자 할 때 결국은 실수를 하게 됩니다. 제가 미리 사수에게 조언을 구했더라면, 반복적인 일에 대해 시간을 절약할 수 있었을 것 같습니다. 저는 스스로 일을 주도적으로 찾아 하는 타입 인 것에 대해 만족하지만 일을 멈추고 조언을 구하야 할 때가 언제 인지 알아보는 것에 대해서는 좀 더 신중할 필요가 있다고 생각됩니다.
In my current marketing role, my manager asked me to come up with a solution to our declining social media engagement. I assessed our current strategy and recent results, analyzed what some of our top competitors were doing, and then came up with an exact blueprint we could follow this year. I feel this is a good example of using logic to solve a problem because it was based on analysis and observation of competitors, rather than guessing or quickly reacting to the situation without reliable data. I always use logic and data to solve problems when possible. The project turned out to be a success and we increased our social media engagement by an average of 82% by the end of the year.
현재 저의 마케팅 업무에서, 저희 매니저님께서는 항상 저에게 소셜미디어 참여 감소에 대한 해결책을 찾아오라고 하십니다. 저는 현재 전략과 최근 결과를 평가하고 경쟁사들을 분석한 후 올해 나아가야 할 정확한 청사진을 떠올립니다. 저는 이러한 방식이 논리적으로 문제를 해결하는 좋은 예라고 생각합니다. 왜냐하면 신뢰할 만한 데이터 없이 단순히 상황을 예측하고 반응하는 것보다, 이것은 데이터 분석과 동시에 경쟁사 관찰에 기반을 둔 것이기 때문입니다. 저는 항상 가능한한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 로직과 데이타를 활용하는 편입니다. 결국 프로젝트는 성공적으로 마무리되었으며, 저희는 그 해 말까지 소셜미디어 부분에서 평균 82%의 참여율을 달성하였습니다.
