What office?

DC/Tysons

We just want to see how you think through problems. Show us how you approach it the problem. Detail out the assumptions you’ve made, and provide data to back up your recommendations.

We’re looking for executive presence, good storytelling skills, and the ability to problem solve / think critically. Good luck OP

Ahh, very familiar with DC. What part of BAS?

I’d focus on some test cases to get some practice. Shouldn’t be too grouling.

DM me with who you are interviewing with and I can give you some background..

I'm trying to frame my answer to the leadership question. I once talked to my mom about how I was selected as CEO in a group project. It was because of my strong technical skills+connections(I already know 80% of the group)+activeness. My mom said that's exactly what she values in the professional setting. Can I answer the question in this way during interviews? I feel like it's not the common approach since this answer does not involve any specific actions, but could potentially stand out.

It is an important trait to have in this job and I just don't know how to do this. It makes me very upset - I even sought therapy but wasn't useful. I can't spend 14 hours each day feeling like this:(
