      How to Answer

      Before your interview, think back to a time you had to take on a task or a role that you felt was above your experience level. Clearly describe the situation, explain why you were asked to do the job, and outline how you worked toward a great outcome.

      1st Answer Example

      "When my manager went on unexpected medical leave for three months last year, I was asked to step into her position in the interim. I knew the basics but was not trained on the specifics of the role. I was able to take it on successfully by leaning on my team, reading a lot of company manuals, and asking many questions of peer managers. When my manager returned, she was very pleased with the progress that I made."

      2nd Answer Example

      "At times, I will be asked to perform tasks in our computer system that I am not completely familiar with. When this happens, I will not ask for help right away. Rather, I will search for the answer either in our manuals or online. I am comfortable taking on new tasks and enjoy learning new skills."
