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."

I believe integrity is being honest, following through on your word, being transparent, and having strong moral principles. Even if this means you have to do the right thing over what is easy.

Great! Don't forget to remind the interviewer that you personally possess integrity. Also, talk about why being filled with integrity is important to you. Including an example would also strengthen your answer.
