QUESTION 17 OF 28

If you joined the team here at JPMorgan Chase, how would you build relationships with those that you would be working closely with?

For this question, your interviewer will be looking to get the sense that you would be proactive about getting to know your colleagues and fitting into the culture of the organization. Use a personal approach to talk about ways that you have done this in the past and how you would do it if hired for this position. Talk about the importance of relationship building in your line of work and how it helps the overall good of the organization if you take the initiative to do this.

"From my first day on the job, I would take the time to break the ice with my colleagues by introducing myself and setting up an individual meeting with each person. In the past, I've done these meetings over lunch or in an office where I've had questions prepared for me to get to know the person both personally and professionally. I want to ask my colleagues what they expect from me and what I can expect from them. I've found that these conversations really help to open up doors for working with each other moving forward."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Anonymous Answer

I would engage with my team members along with participating in team meetings or any collaborations. I would ask questions or make conversation to get to know team members and allow others to get to know me. Building relationships brings trust and faith into the work environment.

Amanda's Feedback

Well done! Engaging with the team, showing interest, and asking questions is a good start for building trusting relationships. You can also share other strategies you'd use to show your team members that you are trustworthy and reliable such as showing respect to everyone, offering to help others when you're able, and following through to do what you say you'll do.
