Given the industries that Boeing is thriving in daily, the amount of knowledge and skills that you will learn, develop, and master as an employee may be difficult to comprehend right now. In asking this question, your interviewer wants to know that you would be able to learn new skills under pressure and put them to use quickly at Boeing.

Show your interviewers that you are willing to put in the time and effort to learn every new skill possible in this job. Think about a time you learned a new task or responsibility with little advanced notice. Discuss your diligence and actions to learn the content, task, or responsibility within a short timeline and explain to your interviewers why this undertaking was vital. Talk a bit about your ability to be a quick learner and why this is important in this job at Boeing.

"I can't tell you how eager I am to come work for the worldwide leader in aerospace and defense. If I am fortunate enough to come work for Boeing, I would bring an attitude and open mind, ready to learn new skills and put them to use right away. Last year in my current position, we had a short turnaround time to learn our new SCM system. With only four weeks of lead time, I was thankful to have a sandbox environment to play and learn in, and I took full advantage of that. I used many resources to guide me to hit the ground running when we went live."
