The interviewer wants to hear that you enjoy being a part of a team and that you have a history of active contribution to the success of your team. Start by sharing the last time you contributed to a team effort. Perhaps it was a large project at work, maybe you are part of a competitive sports team, or perhaps you recently participated in a group project at school. Discuss your role, the contribution you made to the team, and include the result of your participation!

"In my current retail position, we recently received a large amount of new merchandise for the fall/winter season while our manager was away. To properly receive the merchandise, tag it, and get it on the floor, I knew that we needed a well-organized system. I jumped in and took the lead, assigning roles according to strengths. I asked a couple of the team members to unpack the stock, another to call out SKU numbers, another member to cross-check those SKU's with our inventory system, and two others hanging and steaming the new product. We completed the project in record time, and when our manager came back from vacation, she was very impressed with our teamwork. I am excited to experience more positive collaborations as part of the Panera Bread family."
