Be honest. Exude confidence. Whether you're an analytical innovator, an interpersonal collaborator, or both, offer storytelling examples where you've used this to your advantage and shined.

Exude a sense of self-awareness. Within context, break yourself down for them, break down how other professionals perceive you, what degree of their perception rings true and why.

"They say that you are either an introvert or an extrovert. But I'm not a believer in extremes. I'd say that I lean a little off-center towards being an introvert. But not by much. Sometimes, I'll zero in on something with a singular focus and get it done on my own. There are other times where I thrive on a collaborative effort, finding a great sense of accomplishment and self-worth in being a part of something bigger. Basically, wherever I'm needed, I'm there."

"Definitely interpersonal. I can't tell you how many people have told me I am a bright spot in their workday. When you love being at work, others love working around you. If you're always having a good time, so do others through osmosis. It's just easier being positive. As I result, I never have any issues setting the pace, getting others to work hard, and being an influencer. I just love what I do, and that's all it takes."
