If you handle obstacles well, everyone wants to hire you

"Possessing the skill of handling obstacles well demonstrates a high level of self-reliance, good judgment, and resourcefulness."
 
"The more proactive and resourceful you are, and the better your judgment calls and decision-making are when you're dealing with an obstacle, the greater the trust and confidence others have in you."
 
Where there's trust, there's success.
 
Savvy hiring managers will use the interview to determine whether you've mastered this skill and possess these traits.
 
"If you give any indication that you don't handle obstacles well, the employer will assume you're the type of person who will just dump your problems on your boss."    
 
And nobody wants to hire that kind of person at all.
 
so they hand you a list of obstacle questions and you choose one or two and explain how you would handle it.

Give me an example of an obstacle you faced and what you did:
 

not having the skills to do what was expected of you.
not being able to develop skills you needed and having to attain and use resources outside yourself and your group/department.

not being clear with what you were being asked by a superior who intimidated you.

dealing with a reprimand or negative performance review.
having to hold accountable and confront a difficult person about something they were doing wrong or something they were failing to do.
dealing with a mistake you've made.
