How you answer this question will give the interviewer insight into your self-awareness, how you identify your merits and growth opportunities, and how you feel you are perceived by others. It's a constant challenge for an interviewer to determine whether the person interviewed is being forthright, or doing their best to tell them what they think they want to hear to land the job. This question tests your honesty in the interview process by gauging the consistency of your answers. Your consistency in how you present yourself will show the interviewer that you'll be consistent in your work performance, thereby helping them decide if they choose to hire you.

What this question is more geared towards answering are your intentions and your integrity. Speak to that. How you perceive yourself may differ from how others perceive you, including the person interviewing you. So remain conscious of your body language throughout the interview process. Remain professional and strategic in your answers. Make sure your answers from one question to the next remain consistent with how you present yourself. It's common for people who are honest to assume everyone is honest like them. This is no different from when someone who is dishonest or untrustworthy assumes everyone is trying to undermine them or is disingenuous. So the aim here is to convey trust and integrity as integral to your nature and your common practice. Your answer should be relayed with confidence and ease.

"Pretty sure they'd say I am honest to a fault, always thinking outside of the box, and just about the most happy-go-lucky person they've met. I am trusted, a friend to all, and am frequently sought out for my input and advice. They'd say, I'm the person they want in their corner, cheering them on."
