Even though you may have a great relationship with your employer, there may be times where you don't see eye to eye. Think of a conflict or disagreement you had with your boss where you responded well, either by suggesting a compromise or taking a calm, relaxed stance when you could have responded in a heated tone. The compromise and the attitude you demonstrated show your desire to work together and highlight your creative problem-solving abilities.

"I had a boss that regularly forced overtime on employees at the last minute with no opportunity to make childcare arrangements or plan changes. Sometimes he knew about the need and had plenty of time to warn everyone but did not. I spoke with him at length about how the lack of notice was affecting morale, and eventually, he started giving the notice sooner, making everyone's lives easier."
