Being a recruiter or any professional in the staffing industry requires an immense level of patience. You make many calls every day, wait for candidates to respond, and wait on contracts to be signed. Often, you will be in a significant rush to make a placement before a competing agency beats you to the punch. You will speak to hundreds of candidates every month, all with their personality quirks and potentially low levels of commitment and communication. The interviewer wants to know that you can remain confident, professional, and patient despite all of these challenges. Rate your level of patience from 1-10, and be prepared to give an example that backs your rating.
There will always be candidates, clients, and situations that test your patience, and I do have room to improve.
