Your interviewer wants to know that you will proactively respond to challenges right off the bat and fit in well with Standard Bank's hardworking team. Further, your interviewer wants to ascertain whether you have the formal training needed to be successful on the job or if you'll need support to fill in training gaps. While being honest about potential challenges you might encounter during your onboarding, emphasize your plan of attack for dealing with any hurdles. If you can think of an example off the top of your head, share with your interviewer a time when you were confronted with a challenge at a new job and how you responded to this adversity.

"Having put a lot of thought into this even before submitting my resume for this position, I realize that my greatest hurdle would be moving to a different industry. My five years of experience out of college have been focused on capital markets, but I feel that I've built a solid knowledge base to transition into a role focused on wealth management at Standard Bank. If given the opportunity to join your team, I would initially focus on learning all I can about the wealth management team."

"Understanding that my role here at Standard Bank would have me working with the entire advisory staff, the first hurdle would be getting to know everyone on that team and showcasing the skills that I could bring to their work. If hired for the job, I would hope to be invited to team meetings where I could introduce myself and my role with the team, and I'd invite an open conversation with the entire team."
