QUESTION 29 OF 30

Give me an example of a time when you had to be extra diligent to meet a deadline.

When working for an esteemed brokerage like Jones Lang Lasalle, it is essential that you deliver their standards of excellence in everything that you do. The interviewer would like to know that you are a diligent individual when it comes to deadlines and respecting the needs of your clients. Are you determined to complete your tasks on time, or do you frequently drop the ball? Talk to the interviewer about your ability to act diligently on the job.

"Working in commercial real estate is always about last minute changes and tight deadlines! Recently I worked until 4 AM to deliver an updated proposal for a very particular client. You do what you have to, to make your clients happy. I am not afraid of hard work."

"Last month, I had a client who made a lot of additional and last minute changes to our project. Despite the changes, our deadline remained the same. Our senior broker was becoming stressed that we would not meet our deadline for the market analysis presentation, so I agreed to stay late three nights that week to ensure that we met all expectations."
