When answering this question, focus on a specific project where you faced significant challenges. Describe the project briefly, then dive into the challenges you encountered. Explain the steps you took to overcome these challenges, emphasizing your problem-solving skills, technical knowledge, and any innovative solutions you implemented. Conclude with the positive outcome of the project and any lessons learned. For example:
"In one of my previous roles, I worked on a project to optimize the flotation process for a copper ore. The main challenge was the high variability in ore composition, which affected the recovery rates. To address this, I conducted a series of controlled experiments to understand the impact of different variables on the flotation process. I also collaborated with the geology team to better predict ore composition. By adjusting the reagent dosages and modifying the flotation circuit, we were able to stabilize the recovery rates and improve overall efficiency by 15%. This project taught me the importance of cross-functional collaboration and continuous monitoring."
