When your work history includes employment with large companies and/or diversified services corporations, the chances are high that you have experienced a merger or acquisition of some sort. Perhaps you have been laid off through a process such as this. Talk to the interviewer about your experience. Maintain a positive attitude and avoid speaking negatively about any previous employers.
"I went through a merger in 2010 with Company ABC. The transition during their mass-layoff was not handled as professionally as many would have liked; however, I believe that the leadership team did the best they could. I was lucky enough to stay on board with the company and my experience during the transition was certainly eye-opening. I learned a lot through the process."
"I have not had the experience of being involved in a company merger or acquisition. From my understanding, it can be a stressful time for employees and upper management alike. I feel that the key to a smooth merger would be setting clear expectations and maintaining a high level of communication during all stages."

The interviewer is looking for an idea of your attitude when it comes to change in your workplace environment. Communicate your ability to adapt to change and do so with a positive attitude. Share how you are able to remain upbeat and optimistic through challenging circumstances at work.
