Often times there will be standards that you will have to be aware of when working on a project or in your everyday tasks. Since BC Hydro is government regulated, it is part responsibility of the employees to know what standards and regulations they need to adhere to. Sharing a situation where you have either worked on a project that was under strict requirements or standards would fit this question nicely. A suggestion is to format your answer mirroring the S.T.A.R method (describe the situation, the tasks involved, the actions you took, and how the resolution came about).

"In my last role as a property coordinator, I was required to approve requests for new electricity service. There were strict approval processes, documents to fill out, and communication information requirements that I had to follow before I could establish service. When I have a task similar to this, I like to use a checklist to make sure I have met all of the requirements and tasks that need to be adhered to and to make sure I am following protocol."

"As an Administrative Assistant, I was responsible for making sure I entered the route drivers' mileage correctly into an Excel spreadsheet. Our CEO wanted us to make sure the mileage was entered as well as the rates we were paying out (showing the calculations) so that the drivers could see how their rate reimbursement was calculated. I like to make double-check that each of those boxes is filled out on each form after I am done entering all of the mileage reimbursement to ensure I am following the correct protocol."
