Methodical: I go through the code line by line, ensuring I understand every part before moving on. Big Picture/Quickly: I skim through the code to understand the overall structure and logic before diving into details. Focused: I concentrate on specific aspects like performance or security, leaving other areas to the rest of the team. Collaborative: I prefer discussing the code with the developer to understand their thought process before giving feedback. None 2. What’s your first priority during a code review? Code Quality: I focus on making sure the code is clean, maintainable, and adheres to best practices. Functionality: I ensure correctness of the code for the requirement. Security: I look for potential vulnerabilities or security flaws in the code. Efficiency: I check for potential performance optimizations. None 3. How do you handle code that doesn’t meet your standards? Constructively: I provide clear, actionable feedback, focusing on improvement rather than just pointing out flaws. Directly: I tell developers exactly what’s wrong, even if it might sound rigid. It’s important to enforce standards, and sugarcoating wastes time.

Documentation: I maintain clear guidelines and documentation for the team to follow. Individual discretion: I trust each developer to apply best practices in their own way. None 5. How do you deal with a disagreement during a code review? Discuss openly: I encourage an open discussion to understand different perspectives and reach a consensus. Insist firmly: I stand by my opinion if I believe it’s correct, even if others disagree. Seek mediation: I involve a senior team member to help resolve the disagreement. Compromise: I agree to a middle ground to avoid delays and move forward, to balance quality with deadlines and the criticality of the functionality involved.
