situational questions

Situational questions are inquiries designed to assess how someone would respond to specific scenarios. In the context of general knowledge, these questions often present a hypothetical situation related to a topic, requiring you to apply your understanding and reasoning to decide on an appropriate course of action. They can help gauge problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and the ability to apply knowledge practically. For example, asking how you would handle a sudden change in a project deadline tests both your understanding of project management and your ability to adapt under pressure.
