In an Interview I have been asked the following questions,
1) How would allocate job to your team members if you are
assigned a role of Team Lead.
2) The second question was, do you follow any technique for
the distribution of time while assigning jobs to your team
members.

For, both the questions I was clueless to answer.

Please give me a practical approach for the above questions.
