Answer
The proxy is bypassed in self-invocation. Frame the concept in practical terms so you can explain it during interview discussion.
When a method annotated with @Transactional is called from another method within the same class, the call does not pass through the Spring proxy needed to manage the transaction. This results in @Transactional being ineffective. You can solve this by moving the transactional method to a separate bean.
