The staff at Burlington Coat Factory work together as a team. Their team is comprised of multiple personalities, but they rely on strong compatibility between team members to work efficiently. When considering which personality traits to share, identify the traits that make you a good teammate. Talk to the interviewer about your personality traits, such as introverted, energetic, or confident, as opposed to your character traits, such as honest, hard-working, or reliable.

"I'm a very confident person. I know my strengths and feel empowered to use them to do my best work. I'm extremely friendly and have a knack for engaging even the most disinterested customers in conversation. My boss always described me as a go-getter; I enjoy being challenged and pushing myself to achieve new goals."

"Even though I'm an introvert, I enjoy meeting new people and feel comfortable getting to know strangers. I love to organize things - information, products, people, you name it! I'm also really loyal. When I care about a person or an organization, I become an advocate for them, which I think would make me a great addition to the team here."

Need to control and Teamwork.

Marcie's Feedback

So you like to be in control, but you also like to work on a team? Great! Does your desire to be in control mean that you have high standards? Talk a bit more about this. Try to emphasize qualities that you possess that align with the job description.
