.NET Scenario-Based Questions

1. How would you handle a situation where a senior developer insists on using an outdated coding standard that you believe is hindering the performance of an application?

2. Imagine you're tasked with migrating a legacy .NET Framework application to .NET Core. What steps would you take to ensure a smooth transition while minimizing downtime for users?

3. Suppose you're leading a project and a critical bug is found during the final testing phase just days before the deadline. How would you prioritize addressing this issue while managing team dynamics?

4. You discover that a teammate is consistently pushing code with insufficient testing, leading to multiple failures in the build pipeline. How would you approach this situation to ensure code quality without creating conflict?

5. Consider a scenario where a client requests a feature that seems to contradict the original project specifications. How would you communicate with the client to handle their request while ensuring the project stays on track?

6. You're in charge of implementing a new feature, but after analysis, you find that the current architecture will make it nearly impossible. How do you propose to your team a redesign while keeping them motivated?

7. While reviewing a pull request, you notice that the code could lead to potential security vulnerabilities. What steps would you take to address this issue with the developer and ensure the security of the application?

8. You join a project midway through and find that the existing documentation is outdated and incomplete. How would you approach updating the documentation while ensuring your team has the information they need to continue development?

9. A critical system you are responsible for has gone down, and you are the lead on call. Describe your process for diagnosing the issue, communicating with your team, and restoring the system.

10. You're part of a team where some members prefer classic .NET development, while others are pushing for the latest technologies like Blazor. How would you facilitate a discussion to find common ground for the technology stack?
