How to handle conflict in real life :
" Keep rejecting their pull request until they fall in line ", lol

Also 1 hint, the ability to say "I don't know", is underrated. It's ok, the more important thing is how would you deal with it.

Thanks a lot for this video. I had a couple of rejections from behavioral interviews last week and this video made me realize what was I doing wrong.

For conflict, what if we have a case where there's one other engineer on the project including you (who is much more experienced), but you don't feel like they're pulling their weight? eg they're asking you a lot of questions? I feel like bringing this up to a manager might be a bit sus since it gets into performance management. What do you think a good answer would be in terms of what action you took?

blind is full of stories of people getting E6 offers by lying on behavioral interviews and now they are afraid that they will not be able to correspond to their level 🙂
