At Williams-Sonoma, we want to make sure that all of our employees are empowered to be high achievers and who pursue quality and excellence in all that they do. One of the ways that an employee can prove their leadership and excellence is by planning ahead for the unexpected. Talk to the interviewer about how you react when unexpected situations arise that threaten to make you late for work.

"I'm a mom to three sports-lovers, so I'm no stranger to running into complications when shuttling my girls to their separate practices, games, and meets. My go-to strategy to prevent being late to any event, including work, is to have a plan B, C, and D -- that way, if something unexpected happens, I don't have to worry about how I'm going to stick to the tight schedule."
