Recruitment, staffing, and talent management projects can change without notice, for a variety of reasons. In the staffing services industry, you may find that your client calls off a job search after you have poured all of your energy into the project. Maybe your client changes their ideal candidate profile. Or, perhaps your client forgot to mention that the role requires extensive travel or eventual relocation and now your top candidate is no longer interested in the role.
Talk to the interviewer about a time when you had to change your approach to a project or task due to the introduction of new information. Discuss how you reacted, and what you did to keep your motivation going despite the let-down. Most of all, the Adecco interviewer wants to see that you are adaptable and able to react professionally when projects don't always go the way you expected. Consider forming a story-based response to this behavioral-based question using the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result).
