This question challenges you to think about how you act as a leader in your daily life. Even if you're not leading a team, you can still demonstrate the qualities of a leader! The interviewer wants to hear that you have the leadership qualities they seek in a security service professional.

If you have worked as a security service professional, focus on giving an example from your industry. If you are new to the field, provide an example of how you have demonstrated leadership qualities at church, school, sports, or a previous job.

"Yes, I feel I'm always leading by example, with or without managerial authority. I always try to come in a bit early and stay a bit late, pitching in and going the extra mile whenever possible. I feel this makes me a good teammate and human, setting me up for a strong career trajectory. When the opportunity for a true leadership role presents itself, I hope to have positioned myself to be top of mind for the promotion."

"Yes, I do. It's so important always to be leading by example, and I never know who is watching. That applies to stepping foot in the unit or behaving on social media when tied to the security industry. No matter the situation or where I find myself, I always act accordingly to be a real leader."
