4. Tell me about one of the most rewarding experiences you had working on a team.
How to Answer
The interviewer wants to hear that you feel accomplished through teamwork. Talk about a time when you felt fulfilled through a team setting or project collaboration. An example may be a time when you worked on a team project in University, a recent work collaboration, or possibly an extracurricular experience such as coaching a little league team. Discuss the positive results of the teamwork and how you attained a positive outcome as a group.
1st Answer Example
"The most rewarding teamwork experience that I have had was in my last year of university. We were assigned a project in teams of 4 which accounted for quite a large part of our grade. I believe everyone pulled more than their weight because so much was at stake. Teamwork is very rewarding when everyone has something to win, or lose."
2nd Answer Example
"My current team is made up of 4 incredibly talented mechanics and three knowledgeable sales experts. I find every day to be incredibly rewarding because my team is like a well-oiled machine. I can count on them, and they can count on me."
