Workplace relationships are essential to nurture. Talk to the interviewer about how you plan to earn the trust of your new coworkers should you be offered the position. The interviewer would like to know how you can win your new coworkers over. Some examples of how to earn the trust of your coworkers include:
- Treat everyone the same, regardless of their job title
- Do not complain about your job to your coworkers
- Reach out to new employees and make them feel comfortable
- Own up to your mistakes and fix them

Focus on giving examples from your past. Describe how you earned the trust of your coworkers by getting to know them and their families, keeping your word when you say you are going to do something, lending a hand when others need help, or covering a coworker's shift when they have a family emergency.

Avoid saying that you do not feel the need to earn the trust of your coworkers. If you do not feel like earning the trust of your new coworkers, the interviewer will determine you are a challenging person to work with and will pass you over for another candidate.

"Trust is something you earn over time with people. Trust happens when people deliver on doing what they say they will do. I take the approach of underpromising and overdelivering to accelerate the trust process. I will lead by example and be transparent in my communications. With strong trust, teams can accomplish great things together."
