This question gauges how in charge of your own development you are, and whether you stay up to date on the developments in your industry. Your answer could provide insights on how actively you expect and adapt to changes that could impact your profession, or whether you take your position for granted, putting the relevance of your skills at risk. It could also reveal whether you'd be a trusted resource for their teams. Before the interview, brush up on any breaking news, or revisit something noteworthy that you've read and were enthusiastic about, so they're fresh in your mind prior to the interview.

Study the gestures and body language of being authoritative and confident. Some non-verbal cues for expertise and confidence in the workplace are maintaining good eye contact, effective hand gestures such as hand steepling, displaying your hands with palms up, interlacing your fingers with your thumbs up, among others. Keep your posture as authoritative as possible as well.
