Describe a time you displayed leadership among your teams.

"American is more than just a job -- it's where you can build a career for life." Their website states that "every team member is a leader." As phrased across their webpages, American Airlines is "seeking the inspiring leaders of tomorrow" who have an "ability to monitor and assess performance of self, team members and the operation to make improvements or take corrective action."

"I consider myself a natural leader. I normally am the one taking the lead on group projects, to rise to any challenge, and the first to step up when volunteers are needed. I try to lead by example every chance I can get."

"Although I haven't held formal leadership positions, I possess all the traits of a leader. I am emotionally mature, hold myself accountable, am self-managed in my work, and have above-average communication skills, time management skills, and high-level attention to detail. I think outside of the box, am resourceful, and work well under pressure."
