Leading a project team will put you in front of many differing personalities and you need to have the ability to work with every type of personality to be successful in this role at Macquarie International Infrastructure Fund Limited. While your interviewer may not be telling you that you will work with a difficult person because they know of a few, they're more looking to see how you utilize your communication and problem solving skills to make the situation better for everyone. As you answer this question, feel free to use an example from the past that highlights how you used your interpersonal skills to work effectively with a difficult person on a project team.

"Honestly, one of the things that I love the most about being a Business Analyst is the mix of people that I get to work with and if I took an honest look back over time, I'd say that every team that I was a part of had at least one difficult person to work with. In those situations, I rely on an empathetic approach that really tries to narrow down what makes that person tick on the job. With that knowledge in hand, I can then touch them in a relatable manner and even provide them with work that suits their needs the best."

I have the ability to work with every type of personality; an honest look back over time, I'd say that every team that I was a part of had at least one difficult person to work with. To best handle this situation, I listened to all of their thoughts on the project and asked a lot of follow-up questions to get their sense of the project. After that, I asked for a couple of days to rework some designs.
