Why the Interviewer Asks This Question
A consumer product sales organization is driven by data and information and your role with Procter and Gamble may find you being a purveyor of that information for the organization. Whether you will be working face to face with customers/consumers or solely with fellow colleagues at the organization, your interviewer will be looking to hear that you are comfortable talking in front of large groups and presenting.

How to Answer
Public speaking can be intimidating, so assure the interviewer that you are capable of communicating well in front of large groups. If you have any formal training in public speaking, be sure to discuss that. Perhaps you have so much experience that it comes second nature. Assure the interviewer that you are capable of giving presentations should it be required in your role with Procter and Gamble and use any examples of times you've had to do this during your career.

1st Entry Level Example
"The bulk of my presentation experience comes from my time in school, where I prepared a variety of speeches and presentations in my communications class. I am comfortable speaking in front of groups and have experience speaking to small groups of 10-20 in my class and also in front of about 75-100 in the auditorium. I look forward to gaining even more experience in preparing and delivering professional presentations for clients and internal stakeholders."

2nd Answer Example
"I do not have a lot of experience in presenting to large groups, but I do present regularly to groups averaging around 4 to 6 people. I am a confident speaker in that setting and am sure that I could present in front of many people. I'd be happy to take on that challenge here at Procter and Gamble."
