Have you ever broken a confidentiality agreement during your career?

"No. Confidentiality agreements allow for complete trust between an organization, its staff, and its clients. I have never broken a confidentiality agreement. Despite my reasons for leaving a job in the past, I would never choose to hurt a previous employer or client in any way and am more than ready to abide by any confidentiality and non-compete agreements that Kimberly-Clark has."

"No. Confidentiality agreements are necessary and important to protect an organization, its clients or customers, and its employees. I fully understand these aspects of confidentiality and take them very seriously. I would continue that tradition if fortunate enough to join Kimberly-Clark."

First, you want to directly answer the question and let your interviewer know if you've ever had to break a confidentiality agreement. If you did, explain why. If you've signed confidentiality agreements and abided by them, be sure to discuss that as well. And, of course, if you've never worked under a confidentiality agreement, you can confidently let the team at Kimberly-Clark know that while reiterating that you are willing and ready to if you join their team.

"As a recent graduate, I've never had to abide by a confidentiality agreement. However, I am very familiar with them.

I'm ready to work under any agreements necessary for this job."
