There is an expression that a person's character is reflected by the actions they take when no one is looking. When speaking about your integrity, offer examples where your honesty shined through, where you prioritized the needs of others, and convey you are consistent in living according to your values.

In my position as a cashier, my cash draw is always clean and never short. There has never been a discrepancy in the 7 years that I worked there. I best show my integrity by being a consistent, reliable employee; avoiding all workplace gossip.
Lauren's Feedback
In a previous position as a cashier, I displayed multitudes of integrity, organization, and reliability. For seven years, I had zero cash discrepancies, and my work area was always clean and presentable. I pride myself on the way I handle situations, and professionally refrain from workplace gossip.

I did a denial based on incorrect application info without verifying it. The next day I contacted the client to verify and was able to approve the benefits however a day late. I told my boss immediately of my untimely error. In my QA meeting, I accepted my boss's constructive criticism on how I could've prevented this with additional verification and that sometimes shortcuts make things longer.

Anonymous Answer
At my previous job, I had strict deadlines to meet so my customer's businesses could run smoothly. By meeting deadlines I gained their trust, which lead to a stronger business relationship and greater customer satisfaction.
Marcie's Feedback
It's definitely important that you met deadlines; this would no doubt create trust in a professional relationship. A different example might work better in this case, however. Try to think of a time when you chose right over wrong, even if it was the harder choice. Discussing an instance when you were ethical or moral will prove to the interviewer that you're a person of great integrity. Some examples might include communicating honestly, taking responsibility for your actions, keeping a promise, respecting the privacy of a coworker, supporting your company's values without receiving any recognition, and being trustworthy. Good job!
