These are positive attributes that the interviewer will be happy you have. Nice job!

This is a great achievement! Nice job. Consider adding more details to your answer, however, to make it more meaningful and memorable to the interviewer. Perhaps you might discuss what sacrifices you had to make to graduate so quickly and with such a high GPA. What was challenging about it? How did you manage to do it? If you held down a job or participated in extracurriculars as well, you should mention this too.

This is a good example to use in answering this question! It's great that you explain the situation, what your role was, what you did, and what the result was. You might consider adding some more details just to strengthen your answer. For example, were you the one who discovered that the training wasn't included in the contract? Did you conduct the internal training? Think through other aspects of this example and emphasize the ways in which you acted as a leader.

You do a great job explaining which chart and diagram types you typically use, and you also mention why they are important - because they help you to more clearly communicate with stakeholders. Good job! If you want to add more detail to your answer, you might delve into the various situations when you would choose to use one type of chart or diagram over another.

I am definitely open to taking work home with me if it's necessary because of a tight deadline or an emergency. Sometimes I take work home with me just to get caught up if things are very busy for some reason. However, in general, when I leave the office I try to leave work there so I can relax at home and enjoy my family and hobbies. This relaxation time allows me to recharge so when I come back to work I'm ready to give my all. Because of this mentality, I am extremely focused and productive during work hours.
