The interviewer is asking how you've earned credibility or enhanced collaboration in the workplace. Even if you were the top performer at your last job, you still have to prove yourself when working with a new team. When hired at a new job, it's natural to want to prove yourself. Your approach to building relationships while exhibiting a strong work ethic is a tricky balancing act. It takes time to establish relationships and even more time to show you have what it takes. There are many behavior types out there. Your approach aims to reveal your personality type to the interviewer and how well you'll fit into their team.

To build trust within a new team, a recruit needs to learn the ins and outs before suggesting improvements. The surest way to evaluate what you can contribute is first working side by side with those who are more familiar with the environment. Seeking insights from your peers, exhibiting respect for their seniority over you while asking questions, and getting a clear understanding of their systems goes a long way.

"I'd get to know everyone there. I'd work hard side by side with them and keep my head down. I'd exhibit my positivity and ask for their tips and tricks to get the work done as efficiently as possible. I'd actively listen, participate, and keep asking questions to absorb as much as I could. Once I feel I build some strong working relationships, I'd keep trying to identify improvement opportunities and would innovate from there. I'm there to contribute and make the team stronger as a whole. That's my goal."
