When i am involved in any interview, i focus on a holistic approach. Each answer is derived based on many factors and these factors differ from team to team and organization to organization.
#1. How do you spent your day at work as a scrum master.
#2. Given that you are in a product backlog grooming session with PO and your project will get over in next 3 iteration. however you only have one iteration of work left. Explain what does this situation mean to a scum master.
#3. A story has 5 tasks and team is done with 90% of tasks. One of the team member raises red flag on this task, as it is non-achievable. After various discussions, PO arrives at a conclusion that this story is not needed. How, you as a scrum master deal with this situation. What actions can this team takes to avoid future issues.
#4. In your Iteration Planning meeting, Team is not able to arrive to a consensus on estimation of a specific story. There are two respectable and senior members are having heated discussion over approach and over all estimates. How you as a scrum master deal with the situation.
#5. Given that you have spent 5 iteration as a team and a team is not able to scale up the velocity and there is no sign of improvement in code quality either. Your retrospectives are not able to identify the underlying problem. How you as scrum master will identify the cause of the issues and help team identify a corrective action. Explain role of scrum master in whole process.
#6. How will you ensure and motivate a team to increase various non functional requirements like unit test code coverage or efficient UI in product delivery.
#7. What are the top 3 metrics you use in your project to report health of the project.
#8. My organization is moving to agile and identifies Jane, a Technical Manager as a scrum master. Based on the organization structure she is also responsible for rating team members and Jane is responsible for delivering a robust architecture. Few team members report to Jane. Jane is an ace developer and passionate about technology.
Explain, how Jane can effectively perform her roles and responsibility as scrum master.
#9. Why stories are estimated in Fibonacci, what is so special in this series. Can we use some other series of set of numbers?
#10. Explain different kind of estimation techniques used in agile?
#11. What are top three things which you should validate before a story is moved to an iteration?
#12. What are the components of DOR in your project?
#13. What are the components of DOD in your project?
#14. How to perform a release plan in agile for long project when you do not have historical background of team velocity?
#15. How do you coach/mentor a PO when they are coming from NON agile mind set. How do you coach them to align them self with agile?
#16. How do you perform Agile retrospective with your teams?
#17. What will you do when middle of the iteration you identify that a story is either over estimated or underestimated?
#18. What are Scrum Values
#19, What are scrum ceremonies and output of each one of them
#20. Define Agile?
