Generally speaking, if I'm going to miss a deadline, I tell my boss beforehand. He then either extends the deadline or throws more assets at the problem to meet the deadline.

As a program/project manager for over forty years I had only one project fail to meet its budget, quality, or timeline goals. And that one failure was due to a new program manager eventually cancelling the project because he saw no reason for it.

But being in the business I was always aware of major programs and project going on around me in my domain of expertise. There were lots of failures. Exceeding the cost/resource budget was the main failure mode. But schedule was a close second. The repercussions for overrunning the deadline were varied and many, but here are a couple of them:

  1. Project was fined by the customer; so that project lost some of its profit margin.
  2. Project provider, lost future project contracts from the aggrieved customer.
  3. Project provider received bad press in the general media and in the professional media.
  4. Law suits were filed by the customer against the project provider.

What does 'Failed to meet a deadline' mean?

It simply means that there was a deadline for something to be done, i.e., payments, reports, a plan, dinner, anything that is supposed to be concluded by a particular target time. If you don't have whatever done by the target time, you have "failed to meet a deadline"


Tell us about a time when you failed to meet a deadline?

Well everybody in this world have a time when things don’t move in quite their way. The things which can make you nervous or make you bold & prepared better for next time. It was once during a big outdoor party where we were all nuts were late by nearly an hour to meet the deadline, but if God makes questions it make answers as well, hopefully we were saved by the good Main Host.


What repercussion if you failed to meet the deadline?

It completely depends on what the deadline was for. If it was the deadline for getting on an airplane, you can't take the flight. If it's a deadline for applying for a job, you won't get the job. In general, you can figure that the repercussion of not meeting any deadline is that you won't have that particular opportunity now, and sometimes it's worse. If you fail to meet a deadline set by a government agency (such as the IRS), you could face very serious consequences. If you fail to meet a deadline for a court case, you could lose the case and face financial hardship or jail.

How do you answer 'Describe a time when you needed to go above and beyond your responsibilities in order to meet a customer or deadline expectation' in a job interview?

The authorities and responsibilities are on side by side. So when we have the authority to work there is no chance of not meeting deadlines. In my opinion i been justified every deadline that has allotted to me and i dont know the repercussions of failure in the job.


Describe a situation where you were struggling to meet an important deadline How did the situation come about What did you do to meet the deadline Were you successful?

A situation when I was struggling to meet an important deadline was when I had projects due for school, and the situation would come about when I would continually put them off until the last minute. In order to meet the deadline, I would have to put a lot of work into it near the deadline, and in most cases I was successful.
