The interviewer would like to know more about the types of decisions you are accustomed to making in the workplace. How you answer this will give them a good idea of your experience, seniority, and ability to handle the decision-making requirements in this possible position.

If the job you are interviewing for requires you to be decisive and quick on your feet, you will need to be able to provide examples of how you have done these things in the past. If you worked in production, you may have to make decisions on timely and safe production processes. If you worked as a supply chain manager, you might have been required to know how to allocate budgeted inventories.

You may have made decisions that became so routine you didn't think twice! Refer to these types of decisions and be sure to highlight how these types of decisions have prepared you for a role like this one.
