Question 8 of 35

Are you a people person or an animal person?

Many may volunteer an unfiltered answer without understanding the nuance behind this question, claiming to prefer the company of animals over people any day, and even label themselves a misanthrope (a person who dislikes people). This question is asked to determine how well you'll present to their customers and whether you are an introvert who prefers solitary distraction-free tasks or an extrovert who enjoys interacting with the public in a customer centric environment. The ideal tone to strike is that of balancing yourself between both spheres.

      1st Answer Example

      "Both. It helps me balance things in life. I love my little furry friends. I also love hanging out with my regular friends, at work or outside of work. We all need both time to be interactive and some quiet time."

      2nd Answer Example

      "I love all living things, great and small. I don't claim to be an animal lover, which is often code for being a misanthrope. I'm happy being alone with my pooch or working as part of a team. I'd say I'm a dog person, a cat person, and a people person."
