Would you consider the ability to analyze data a strength?

This question probes your understanding of the role of an IRS agent, but also whether you take more of an analytical versus interpersonal approach. Those who are more interpersonal tend to be more extroverted and people-oriented, and those who are more analytical tend to be more solitary or introverted in their work. Most people rarely fall on one extreme or the other but closer to the center of the scale.

Having strong analytical skills is as much of a necessity as it is a strength. Having high attention to detail is a necessity for anyone working for the IRS. An IRS agent should display professionalism and strong analytical skills. Put self-evaluative thought into your answer, rather than trying to hurry through it.
