What three words would your former coworkers use to describe you?

Focus on using three words that accurately describe your personality. Even though the interviewer will not call your coworkers for a reference, but rather your employer or supervisor, how your references describe you should match what your colleagues would say. After explaining how your coworkers would describe you, offer an example for each word.

"My former coworkers would describe me as reliable, compassionate, and patient. They would say I am reliable because I always show up early for my shift and never call in sick. If they ask me to cover a shift for them, they know they can count on me to show up. I show patience and compassion to my patients, family members, and team and genuinely care about others."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.
