The Canadian National Railway Company would assurances that you are a sincere and honest person whom they can trust to do the right thing - even when nobody is looking! Honesty is more so a study of perception and intentions. It's an evaluation of your integrity. Offer that you see great value in transparency, while consistently respecting the chain of command. Attest to your integrity, and what your word means to you. Be reasonable and give yourself an honest rating while backing your response with an example of your ethical conduct. Touch on your approach to emotionally confusing situations and how your integrity guides your responses. Acknowledge you strive for growth in every area, and recognize there is always room for improvement.

I would say a 9/10. I'm human and not perfect, but I value honesty and a straight forward attitude. I always appreciate when others are honest with me so I return that favor.

Human and not perfect - this is a great statement :) Your answer comes across as genuine, and it's great that you add in a statement regarding your appreciation for honesty in return.

I am a very honest person. I would give myself a 9/10. I do not see the point in being dishonest about something.

Amanda's Feedback
Honesty is a foundational quality that is valued by all employers. It's important to support your reply by talking about your ethics. Do you value integrity, truthfulness, and transparency? How does honesty protect your team or others when you're on the job? How does honesty help you build a strong team? Sharing why honesty is foundational to the way you work and live gives the employer a clearer picture of who you are.
