QUESTION 16 OF 35

When have you had to be extra thorough in completing tasks?

Some tasks will require a keener eye and additional diligence. Discuss a time you were extra thorough during a work-related project.

"I have to be extra thorough from time to time when I have especially detail-oriented clients. Often this will mean spending additional time on calls with them to highlight project changes. I am okay with being extra thorough when needed."

"I am always thorough, but we have monthly team meetings to discuss our performance metrics. That reporting takes a little longer."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Anonymous Answer

I always try to be thorough. For example, in my current job, we have monthly financial reports that must be given to the leadership team. That reporting takes time, and there is no room for error. It takes a little longer to complete, but I enjoy delivering a product that is thorough.

Rachelle's Feedback

This is a good example of being thorough in the workplace! If you can, include some details regarding the time commitment this requires. You could also create some friction and result in the story by describing what is at stake if you are not detailed during this task.
