There is a good chance that you will interact with lots of different department employees during a normal workday. The interviewer needs to know that you will work with other departments to accomplish the goals of the company. He is trying to assess your ability to be a team player. Be positive and energetic when describing a time you worked with another department, and how that communication benefited you both.

"In my previous position, we were required to meet daily with the accounting office to insure that all invoices and purchase orders were done correctly. I developed a good relationship with them, and we worked well together. I do not expect to have any issues with anyone in your organization, and I look forward to a chance to show Toyota that I can be a team player."

At my previous employer, while working with the project managers and as a storage specialist, I had to work with practically every other department to satisfy customer needs. I had a good relationship with every department, there was a mutual helpful vibe (which is rather hard to do on that base). Others understood I would do my best to make their jobs easier when they did the same for me. All of the project managers would send me to speak with the different departments (mechanics, storage, shipping) because they knew that I already had established relationships with every department and could work easily with anyone. The other departments loved me because I would learn what they did in each department and learned what I could do that would make their lives easier.
