      How to Answer

      The interviewer wants to see that you have a plan in how you will work from home successfully. Some people can't handle this lack of structure, so show that you are able to be very productive.

      1st Answer Example

      "I was able to work from home a few days a week in my last role. I have a specific routine I follow. Working in pajamas does NOT happen in my house- I dress as if I was going to work, go to a specific office space in my home, and take regular breaks as I would in the office. I utilize Skype and chat features to keep in touch with colleagues so it doesn't feel isolating."

      2nd Answer Example

      "For example: "I enjoy the flexibility that working from home offers. Last year, when I was in school, I had several on-line courses versus classroom courses. I made sure I was in a quiet place, free of noise and distraction, so I could fully focus on the material. I also took advantage of all the on-line communities so it felt like my "classmates" were accessible. I also met with people face-to-face when I had the chance so that we built a relationship. I would use all of these tools in this position."

      "Previously I did have the opportunity to work from home during the peak of the pandemic in 2020 when it first started. I set myself up as if I was actually going to the office. I would get ready and my office space in the home is secluded in a quiet space away from distractions."

      Amanda's Feedback

      Working remotely is much more common than it was pre-pandemic, and it sounds like you know how to set yourself up for success by having a dedicated, distraction-free space. You can strengthen this answer further by talking about how you use efficient workflow and task management tools to accomplish your daily tasks, maintain clear communication with your colleagues, and set boundaries so that you know when to log off and take a break in order to maintain a healthy work/life balance.
