QUESTION 10 OF 30

Do you prefer to work independently, or with partners?

This teamwork-based question will give the interviewer an idea of your preferred work style. The way you answer this question will show a bit about your personality and how you interact with others. You may work well without the need for much direction and collaboration, or maybe you are very driven by a collaborative and team-focused environment. Either way, be honest with the interviewer about your preferences without leaning negatively, either way.

"I understand that this role requires me to work both independently and with the partners and team at Ameriprise Financial. In my current role, I work independently around 75% of the time, and I do appreciate the autonomy. With that said, around 25% of the time when I am collaborating with the team, I feel encouraged, challenged, and refreshed. It's great to have a balance of independence and teamwork."

"Being newer to my career, the more I can learn from partners and teammates, the better I will become in my career. So, although I can certainly work on independent tasks, I do prefer at this time to have more interaction with others, giving me opportunities to learn."
