How you answer this question aims to inform them of how aligned you are with Nike's code of conduct and ethics. It has a vested interest in making sure any candidate it considers hiring will be an asset rather than a liability.
Here are some excerpts from Nike's code of conduct: "We know it takes courage. It may seem easier or safer to look the other way or let someone else take the lead. But misconduct affects all of us. Please speak up. When you speak up, you are protecting yourself, your colleagues and Nike. Seeking help is always the right thing to do. As members of the Nike team, we count on each other to live our values and act ethically. Follow our Code, and protect what we've built. Every day, we make decisions that affect Nike as a company. No matter where we sit, our choices have significant impact on our reputation and trust. In other words, what we do matters, and so does our judgment."
Objectify the situation, exhibiting an emotionally mature perspective, and how you would navigate such a situation. Remember, you want to come across as relaxed and confident, so research the body language of a confident and relaxed person in a seated position. Pump yourself up with physical exercise to manifest confidence. Go into a private space with a mirror, look yourself in the eye, and give yourself a pep talk. Raise your arms, stretch your back, and make yourself as big as possible. Be ready to share what you have to offer, that you are always ready to do the right thing, and that you believe in yourself.
"I would try to talk them into taking the path of integrity. I would also be transparent and inform them that I am driven by integrity, and if they chose not to do the right thing, I would. If they didn't change their direction, I would do the right thing without hesitation."
