Interviewers pose these sorts of questions when good teamwork is an essential element of their work environment and company culture. At Amazon, the ability of team members to collaborate effectively is critical to productivity and operations success. If you prefer to work independently and lack interpersonal and people skills, you may not be the best candidate for a role with Amazon.

In your answer, while you want to focus on how you helped the group achieve a result, try not to focus too much on your individual successes. You want to show that you're a team player, so avoid implying that the group only succeeded because of your efforts. Instead, focus on how you helped the group achieve something together. Telling a story from your past is the most effective way to communicate your strengths as a team member.

"I have years of experience working on team projects at my previous marketing job. I was involved in situations where out-of-the-box thinking was necessary to deliver the project. I excel at communicating with my peers and find it most beneficial to establish open lines of communication. On a past project, I recommended we utilize Slack to connect as a team and keep in constant communication. Improvement can only be made with successful teamwork, and I feel this is important in any marketing role."
