How do you define integrity?

BAE Systems emphasizes that their "culture rewards integrity. Integrity demonstrates a commitment to the BAE Systems values. Strong principles and standards are the cornerstones of business conduct, expected of all our employees wherever they operate. All employees are required to comply. Accountability: we are all personally answerable for our conduct and actions. Honesty: there is no substitute for the truth. Integrity: we say what we will do, we do what we say. Openness: where questions are asked, we will be frank and straightforward in our answers. Respect: we value each individual and treat them with dignity, respect, and thoughtfulness."

HireVue will evaluate your integrity and how sincerely you seem to present your answers. They'll do this by studying your non-verbal cues, such as stroking your chin, covering your mouth or your eyes, avoiding your gaze, or nervous tics such as excessive fidgeting, restless foot and leg movements, frequent body posture changes, and grooming behaviors such as playing with hair or pressing your fingers to lips.

"I define integrity as doing what you say, meaning what you say, being clear about what you say, and standing behind what you say. In other words, follow through on your commitments and be true to your word. Make sure your word is worth something, and being transparent and truthful about what you say is just as important as anything else. Also, don't just say the right thing, but do the right thing."
