This question is designed to gauge your practical experience and your ability to manage all phases of a construction project. When answering, provide a detailed account of a specific project you managed, highlighting key stages such as planning, execution, monitoring, and completion. Mention any challenges you faced and how you overcame them, as well as how you ensured the project stayed on time and within budget. Use metrics and specific examples to demonstrate your effectiveness. For instance, you might say:
"In my previous role, I managed the construction of a commercial building from the initial planning stages through to completion. I coordinated with architects, engineers, and subcontractors, developed a detailed project plan, and monitored progress daily. Despite encountering unexpected site conditions, I implemented a contingency plan that kept the project on track. Ultimately, we completed the project two weeks ahead of schedule and 5% under budget."
