      1st Answer Example

      "My current colleagues would tell you that I'm knowledgeable in my area of expertise and use this expertise to contribute to the larger team. In addition, I'm able to communicate effectively and take direction from others. I'm also always willing to help out other teams or divisions when necessary. I understand that I would be working very closely with the insurance team at Standard Bank, which I assume would involve some degree of interdepartmental coordination. I am eager to learn about new areas outside of my expertise to develop professionally, so I'm looking forward to this collaboration."

      "I prefer to work in an environment that promotes teamwork and collegiality. If I were fortunate enough to join the team here, I would love to eventually take on a leadership role on a team. I've learned to delegate work effectively and help train new employees on our mission and their roles in my current project manager position. I can also thrive in a role where I take direction from others."
