One of the questions asked during the interview was about the most challenging issue I faced in my previous project and how I handled it. I explained a situation where there was a deployment issue in the application environment which caused delays in the release process. I worked with the team to analyze the logs, identify the root cause, and resolve the configuration problem. After fixing it, we also documented the solution and updated the deployment steps to avoid the same issue in future releases.
