    Behavioral and Senior-Round Playbook

    Prepare for the non-coding rounds of a senior .NET interview loop: what each round measures, STAR stories with a checked balance of situation, task, action and result, a story bank that covers ownership, failure, ambiguity, conflict and leadership, influence without authority, a 45-minute system design method with back-of-envelope estimates, communicating trade-offs and handling pushback, code review exercises in C# with checks illustrating the findings and fixes, and level calibration between senior and staff. 11 lessons including a 10-drill practice set and a 25-question mock interview.
