One of your team members is asking for more time to complete a task. How would you handle this situation? How to answer: As a project manager, you will be expected to help team members that have not been able to complete tasks on schedule in the interest of the project. You will want to know why the issue arose in the first place and apply an appropriate fix. You might talk about adding another member if the team is feeling overloaded, implementing time buffers in the planning phase for certain tasks, or negotiating with a stakeholder for more time or resources.
