"Last year our manager went away on vacation for three weeks. Some of my co-workers wanted to falsify our time sheets to reflect overtime hours that we did not work. I disagreed and was able to convince them that it was a bad idea and certainly not worth being fired over.

I scanned the Jacobs Code of Conduct before this interview. I value the detailed approach and the support available to employees. I am confident that I will be able to follow all of the guidelines explicitly."

"I once had a subordinate that would perform work after clocking out. There was a rumor later that I forced my team to work off the clock to save the company money. I did not know it was happening, and I certainly did not ask anyone to work outside of their scheduled shift.

I scheduled a meeting with him immediately to discuss the situation and make it clear that all worked time must be properly accounted for. I asked an HR representative to be present so that he could openly ask questions and discuss why he had failed to log all of his worked time previously.

He stated that he felt he was behind some of his team members in terms of his skill level and he was putting in extra time to improve his skills. Instead of working off the clock, I was able to enroll him in a formal training class that helped him improve. I also met with the rest of my team to review the time logging policy and discuss any additional training needs."
