"In my last position, I was responsible for several sales reports weekly and monthly. I was always honest and took pride in providing 100% accurate reports. We set very ambitious sales goals, and the team often fell short. I never falsified any information or inflated numbers to fit a certain narrative. I'm always accountable for the reports I submit and hold my staff to the highest standards of integrity when reporting up the chain."

"I once had a manager who would berate other employees, and, on several occasions, I witnessed them cursing and yelling at my coworkers. It was a tough situation because normally, I would confront the person I believed was acting inappropriately. However, I was afraid of retaliation. It just so happened that our company's annual code of conduct training came out, and it listed specific steps for reporting this type of behavior. I was able to report the incidents to the corporate employee line anonymously, which allowed me to speak up without fear of my personal information being shared and my manager retaliating against me. After investigating the matter, the company took swift action, and I felt assured that I did the right thing by speaking up for others."
