How you react to this question reveals a lot. Many candidates might wonder if the interviewer has already conversed with their previous employer. If this question makes a candidate nervous, the interviewer may wonder how honest a candidate has been about their qualifications and accomplishments. If the interviewee comes across as confident and provides an answer that is consistent with the rest of the interview, the interviewer can trust what the candidate claims to offer.

In most states, previous employers will disclose very little about your previous employment and work history to avoid defamation lawsuits resulting from heresy. Therefore, it is likely they do not know how you will answer. There is no need to feel nervous about this question. Answer confidently, and describe what you have to offer and contribute to the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company.

"I believe they would tell you there is no one they could rely upon more. I'm a team player who is always professional, courteous, and thorough. I keep my head down, get buried in my work, but would drop everything in a minute if I was needed elsewhere."

"They'd say my work was always of the highest quality. I prioritized the safety of the team and our patients everywhere. They'd say I'm flexible, innovative, and customer-oriented. I'd like to believe they'd acknowledge my contributions as significant. I'm just trying to contribute to my field any way I can."
