Question 13 of 30

How do you define integrity?

"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."

      Tips

      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.
