Teamwork at Fonterra is essential in ensuring that all operations run smoothly and on time. The company prioritizes it through its "you, me, us together" purpose and its co-operative spirit throughout. To get at your ability to join their team as a solid team player, your interviewer wants to hear you talk about your experience collaborating with people from outside your specific work department and how you did this with success.

"Yes, I certainly do! I currently work in a warehouse setting, where I communicate regularly with our sales team, delivery reps, and inventory managers on a regular basis. I love being able to be the expert in my area and am always open to answering questions or helping someone out when needed. I'm confident that this experience will enable me to come aboard here at Fonterra and collaborate with anyone effectively."

"Yes, as an experienced fitter, I've worked alongside engineering and production teams throughout my entire career. My communication skills always enable me to ask questions that enable me to get my work done quickly and efficiently. I value input from anyone on a machine that I am working on and would always do the same as Fonterra's next fitter."

No matter what specific role and team you will be joining at Fonterra, you will be working closely with others from outside your work unit. To prove your ability to do this, think about times you've worked closely with others from outside your department and come prepared to discuss those experiences. Your interviewer will be keying in on your ability to communicate effectively and step outside your comfort zone of the work that you do, so be ready to elaborate on those things as you answer.
