"As you can see from my resume, I've been in corporate training and education for over ten years. In my current role, I have to use similar techniques working with different departments to tailor programs that meet their specific needs. I feel my current approach to hosting an intake meeting with leaders would be effective in a consulting role with external customers. The current intake meetings I lead are an opportunity to ask questions and learn as much as I can about my customers. They also allow me to lay the groundwork for the project and set expectations. Do you see this as an effective approach for this role?"

"Having worked in quality roles for most of my career in both the private and public sectors, I think my career experiences have shaped me well for this role. Transitioning to a consultative role would be a transition for me, and the biggest difference will be this need to work in many industries. Researching clients, their businesses, and their industries will be the first step in my approach to learning about them. I want to make a great first impression when I am face-to-face with a new client, and that first impression starts with my knowledge. Then, my openness and communication skills would take over. I know the right questions to ask for laying out quality initiative projects, and I know the right things to educate clients on."
