      How to Answer

      You have likely gained many valuable skills in your academic and professional career. Your interviewer wants to hear about the skills that will be most relevant to a role at Standard Bank. Before the interview, make a list of the best skills you have developed in your most recent role. Make sure to include both hard and soft skills, and then reflect on which are most relevant to this role and which provide the best examples to share with your interviewer.

      1st Answer Example

      "In the past few years, I was able to upgrade my education while still working full-time. The biggest skill I gained was my ability to multi-task as I worked the dual role of employee and student. I worked incredibly hard to balance these responsibilities, and I would bring this motivation to the role of an analyst. I also pride myself on my curiosity. Expanding the breadth of my knowledge is important to me, and I did that academically. My curiosity itself is a motivator for me, and my attitude toward learning keeps me humble and hungry. As for a third skill, I would say that I'm personable. I've always been a people person and work well with others. At my current job, I work with a team of six people. We've developed a top-notch strategy for communicating and divvying up tasks."

      2nd Answer Example

      "There are many skills I gained in my most recent position as I underwent a fantastic training program and worked with strong mentors. If I had to choose three top skills, I would say effective multitasking, solid closing skills, and accountability. I take my commitments to clients and my colleagues very seriously, and I feel confident in my ability to deliver on those traits."
