QUESTION 15 OF 35

What value do you place on building working relationships?

Talk to the interviewer about how you navigate developing relationships with coworkers when you start a new job. Show that you are a big-picture-thinker and understand before team collaboration and innovation are possible, you have to earn their trust and familiarize yourself with their work styles while introducing them to yours. Lean on their experience as a resource, and show that you are a team-oriented resource to them. It will also offer insights into your personality type and whether you're an introvert or an extrovert. Regardless, express value in bonding with your fellow teammates.

"I value my relationships with my coworkers because we support each other and make each other laugh when the work environment becomes intense. I have a coworker that I eat lunch with every day. We've helped each other by simply listening to what's going on in each other's lives. It's nice to have colleagues who understand you on a personal level."

"To accomplish anything in a job, you need your team members. I rely on my team members to get projects done. I will often call them when I need advice or to help pick up the slack when I'm in a pinch. If you don't have a good rapport with your co-workers, it can limit your ability to be great at your job."
