如何回答"你是否曾do sth without asking yr boss's permission?"...

网上看到亚麻面经的一道题目。 大家什么看法呢~？感觉是在考biased on action的

All the time, actually I NEVER asked permissions to do my job within my own scope. When a teammate is involved, we resolve any issues without escalating to our manager. When speaking to people outside of my own team, I keep my managers informed and direct others to my manager for giving commitments. When I have a new idea, I would find some spare time building a PoC to flesh out the idea before speaking to my manager about it. During one on ones with my manager, I usually seek guidance on what’s bothering me and double check whether there are any gaps in terms of keeping her informed. Hmm, come to think about it, the only time I had to ask my manager’s permission was once I wrote a response to a support manager who in turn will forward to an angry customer. I asked my manager to help proofread it in terms of tune and implied commitment because it was customer facing and I didn’t think the support manager’s review would be adequate. I guess my actions and results earned myself my manager’s trust thus she never felt the need to micromanage me.

我觉得可以引用 Grace Hopper 的名言

It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission.

我来打破零回复。
这种题目，我不想让自己显得自作主张，也不想说毫无主意。那我可能会想（编）一个例子就是我是联系不上我的boss，然后这个东西比较紧急。我结合自己的想法去和比较senior的同事讨论，然后报备给boss，然后行动。这样即使决定不是最佳的，boss也能在第一时间知道然后想策略去补救。

而且这个思路是不错，但是我编故事能力实在差，其实也跟经历少有关吧。

Good point. 能把ask for permission和get boss informed区分开始是很好的一个点。
当然如果他们是想问就是那种完全不告诉老板就动手的例子的话到时候可以能他们follow up的时候再说

很犀利的问题……
