Being flexible and adaptable to changing conditions is a key component of success for any individual at KB Home. Members of the sales team have to handle customers who walk away out of the blue or throw a list of demands their way. Customer service professionals have to deal with a wide array of warranty claims and customer requests. The home building team needs to work around challenges with subcontractors and supply issues. Your interviewer wants to hear about your ability to problem solve and maintain a positive mindset when things don't go the way as planned on the job, so try to think about a time when you had to overcome a sudden challenge. Walk them through what the situation was, what your reaction was, and how you acted to provide a great result in the end.

"Over the years, my patience and flexibility on the job has grown immensely and I would come to KB Home with the ability to navigate any customer challenges with ease. I am a swift problem solver that keeps the needs of the customers in mind and I can best exemplify this with a situation I faced last year. I was working with a high-profile client that had a very high budget, but they were extremely demanding. Communications from them were often rude, but I made sure to never let my emotions get the best of me and stay focused on finding the home they were looking for. This motivated me to work harder and stay focused, knowing that this sale was very important. I would come with this same can-do attitude to KB Home and will be proud to do so."
