An interviewer is always evaluating the consistency of your answers. From your resume, looking for inconsistencies in your formatting or typeset, to how consistent your body language is with the words you communicate. If you answered one question one way, and a similar question totally different, this will clue them in to a lack of attention to detail. Keep your answers consistent. How you answer this question will give the interviewer insight into your self-awareness and how you identify your self-assessment and growth opportunities.

"My co-workers would describe my attention to detail as very strong. I can easily point out spelling discrepancies in communication and will notice the small things. I think big-picture as well, but have always had a knack for details."

"My attention to detail was a point of conversation in my last performance review. My manager was very pleased with the level of detail that I put into a large project. I put a lot of pride into my work and it shows in everything that I do."

Support your claim with a real-life example. Talk to the interviewer about your level of attentiveness when it comes to details on the job. If this is one of your strengths, offer examples of how your attention to detail benefitted the team. You have an opportunity to convince them you're the best candidate for this job. Seize it.

If you don't consider attention to detail to be one of your strengths, focus on others' perceptions of you. Describe your positive impact on the rest of the team, through their lens, and the efforts you got to, ensuring you get the job done.

Good, again it sounds like you have a lot to draw on, but add detail. Explain how a small error can create a lot of problems, what those issues may be and how you avoid them through a systematic approach. This will help the interviewer see your skills in action.
