We want to hire people at Robinhood who have the potential to grow into leadership roles. What leadership or supervisory functions have you fulfilled in your most recent position?

"Currently, I am supervising 12 employees with an overall portfolio responsibility of 24M. In my previous role, I managed 23 employees but with a smaller portfolio of 6MM. I feel comfortable handling a large range of employees, and have greatly enjoyed the mentorship opportunities these leadership opportunities have offered me."

"Although I did not officially supervise anyone in my most recent position, I always had my eye out for opportunities to lead or mentor the more junior staff. I volunteered in a company-wide program that pairs new hires with employees who have been at the company for at least a few years. I appreciated having the opportunity to get lunch with a new hire on a weekly basis and share advice with him as he settled into the new role."

Speak openly about the level of responsibility you hold in your current position, keeping in mind that leadership can come in various forms and is not limited to formal, supervisory roles. While you may not lead a team or manage others yet in your career, you should be able to discuss a time when you led a project or took initiative in a particular endeavor. If you do have formal managerial experience, be as specific as possible in describing it.
