You can usually feel the shift when this happens.
The interview is broad for a while, then suddenly they ask something oddly specific like how you would handle a backlog that keeps slipping every Friday, or two managers who keep escalating the same issue, or a handoff that always breaks between teams.
That usually means they are not collecting generic competency anymore. They are checking whether your judgment transfers into their mess.
I would answer those differently from normal behavioral questions: - say one assumption out loud - say what you would check first - give the first move, not a giant perfect plan - mention one thing you would avoid doing too early
The polished mistake is turning it into a big framework. Most teams just want to hear whether your first instinct would create clarity or more cleanup.
