What would you do

A 3PL site has missed its on-time shipping target three weeks running. How do you handle the conversation with the site manager?

How would you run a weekly review call with buffer site managers so it leads to action instead of just status?

You're co-facilitating a new site startup and the first week's error rate is high. What do you look at first?

What they are checking: Whether they can diagnose startup problems quickly by separating process, system and training causes.

Quality wants a slower process to cut damage, but it will hurt throughput. How do you decide?

About the work

Which warehouse metrics do you think matter most for service and cost, and how do they trade off against each other?

How do you track a cost savings initiative so leadership trusts the number you report?

What they are checking: Whether they know how to set a baseline and separate real savings from volume or mix changes.

What would you put in a daily update to leadership about warehouse operations, and what would you leave out?

What they are checking: Whether they can tell leaders what needs attention without burying them in every metric.

How comfortable are you with Excel or BI tools for building warehouse dashboards? Give me an example of one you built.

What they are checking: Whether they can build their own analysis instead of waiting on others for the data they need.
