The customers of Boeing are some of the highest-profile customers in any industry, and Boeing works hard every day to earn their customers' trust. Your interviewer knows that initial impressions matter in every aspect of their work, and they want to hear you talk about your ability to make a great first impression.

First impressions are everything, and there are many ways to impact a new customer or colleague. Give a detailed overview of your approach to making a good impression. If you have work experience, consider telling a brief story of when you built a relationship with a customer or colleague. You should include specific details of how you developed a relationship with this person. At the end of your response, explain how your relationship-building skills will benefit Boeing.

"Last year, my current organization went on a joint venture with another organization to provide services to a new group of customers. To kickstart this venture, I was tasked with partnering with their marketing director. After receiving their contact information, I decided to send an introductory email to the marketing director and request we meet in person as soon as possible. I welcomed her to my office, had a lunch planned, and set up two hours for us to discuss our partnership moving forward. We immediately hit it off creatively, and I was proud of the immediate connection I fostered."
