Personality and character are two things that are closely related. For instance, someone with an honest character or good work ethic will tend to be more open about their beliefs and personal and professional expectations. The interviewer is looking for cues as to what character you may bring to the table. Be confident when you answer and make eye contact with the interviewer. It is essential to remember body language speaks volumes and eye contact is a significant indicator of your self-esteem, and your self-esteem is reflected outwardly in your personality.

"I'm genuinely easy-going, probably from all the international travel I experienced in my 20's. I like to do the right thing, and sometimes I get stressed trying to reach that goal, but I think it's a worthwhile endeavor. I can be funny, but my sense of humor is pretty dry, so people don't always know that about me when they first meet me."

Focus on showing the interviewer that you are approachable and interact well with diverse groups. The way you present yourself in the interview will show the interviewer that you are an easy person to be around and that you will get along with different cultures and personalities.
