QUESTION 15 OF 28

At Toyota, we believe in good communication between managers and employees, tell me about your relationship with your previous manager.

Employers want to know that you are respectful of your leaders, and while you do not always have to agree with your leader, that you communicate respectfully. The interviewer is also looking for whether you might be a malcontent kind of employee, who bad-mouths leadership. This type of attitude will signal the hiring manager not to hire you. Be positive about speaking about a former boss, and assure the interviewer that you believe in the power of clear communication.

"I believe that it's my job as a professional to adapt to all types of people, and respect leadership even when I disagree with decisions they make. My previous employer was an effective leader from whom I learned a lot. I believe that good communication is the key to a good relationship between employee and supervisor."
