"Well, some of the work you do you are bound to enjoy less than others, and I don't know anyone who enjoys cold calling. It's challenging work, but it is sometimes very important work that needs to get done. So I just put my all into the work I am performing, and I always pad the job. I've consistently exceeded expectations, even when it is less desirable work, and I am always the first to step up and volunteer for that work as well."

This question aims to determine how sustainable of an employee you'd be in an environment such as theirs. By determining whether you've worked in similar environments or not, they'll attempt to ascertain whether you'll burn out quickly from the monotony a job might present. For many, cold calling can be a difficult and tedious task. This question aims to answer whether you have a "can-do" attitude. Having a can-do attitude requires stepping outside of one's comfort zone. An eagerness to step outside of one's comfort zone exhibits adaptability and flexibility. The essential goal here is to communicate that you understand what is expected of you and that regardless of how many don't anticipate that this aspect of the job won't be that difficult, it is more arduous than it seems.

Some of the nonverbal cues the assessment vendor will scan your video interview for are your posture, such as slouching, folding your arms, or protecting your neck. The algorithm will evaluate your professional appearance, such as how tidy and clean your clothing is and your surroundings are. It will monitor your facial expressions, eye movements, head movements, and hand movements. It will also scan tone for your vocal cues, such as placing stress or emphasis on certain words, stutters, or taking long pauses.
