Do you have a more analytical or interpersonal approach?

In this opportunity, the chosen candidate will at times be able to handpick the members of their team. This will include performance monitoring which requires interpersonal and analytical skills, consistently motivating your team while monitoring results. Additionally, having both analytical skills and interpersonal skills will reveal some of the resources you might refer to when trying to solve complicated problems that fall outside of your comfort zone or your range of experience.

Don't choose one or the other unless that is truly the case, which it rarely is in most cases. Put self-evaluative thought into your answer, rather than trying to hurry through it.

"I'm a true believer in the leveling principles of balance. I'd say I have a firm foot planted in both worlds. We all have days, depending on our needs, where we are more focused on team collaboration and the social elements it offers, and there are other times where a singular focus is required for the task on hand. But putting the needs of the work involved aside, I'd definitely say I am both interpersonal and analytical."
