If you were assigned a project with little direction, how would you proceed?

Interviewers pose this question to evaluate your initiative and problem-solving capabilities in ambiguous situations. They want to see how proactive you are in taking responsibility for your work.

Describe a methodical approach to gathering information and clarifying expectations. You could say, 'I would first outline my understanding of the project, reach out to stakeholders for clarification, and begin drafting a plan based on their feedback, ensuring I remain accountable throughout the process.'
