Tell me about someone you admire and why you admire them.

"I admire Jeff Bezos and his approach to leadership, innovation, and the impact he has had on the world and the future. I also admire him for the same reasons I admire Warren Buffett. These are two wise individuals whose intentions seem pure. They are also self-made from humble beginnings."

"I admire Gretta Thunberg. She has made a huge impact campaigning for the environment globally and hasn't slowed down one bit. That's a kind of relentless determination you don't see that often."

This question is a little different from asking who your role model is. Admiring someone doesn't mean you necessarily model yourself after them. Instead, admiring someone means that you respect and approve of their approach. Amazon prides themselves in recruiting innovators and collaborative thinkers who aren't afraid to be challenged or proven wrong. They are looking for that level of emotional intelligence and consider it to be the recipe for success. This question aims to assess how like-minded you are in this regard.
