In the healthcare industry, it is essential to provide effective universal care. When working for a CRO, diversity among peers and clients is expected. Some people feel intimidated when exposed to new cultures and beliefs. Show the interviewer you are open to meeting and learning about new people, with no reservations about becoming an integral part of a diverse team. Be positive with your response.

I have worked on various cross-functional projects. One example is when I was part of a team creating an operational demo of new functionality for the customer. I worked with Systems Engineers to draft requirements and discuss the test group's input for the demo. During the development of the demo software, I worked with Software Engineers to discuss the interaction of the test scripts and the software GUI and controller. Having different skill sets involved helped provide different perspectives on the project and drive it forward.
Amanda's Feedback
Good job! Using a specific example gives the interviewer better insight into how you function in a real-world diverse environment. You can make this response even stronger by relating what you personally learned or skills you sharpened while working with diverse groups such as better active listening, the importance of clear communication, etc.
