18. If your previous employer were here, what would he say about you?
How to Answer
Leaving previous employment on good terms is always a good idea. Interviewers may ask this question and then call the same employer for a reference. So, while this may not be a time for full disclosure, it is a time to be honest. Stay positive and focus on your strengths that a previous employer may share when asked about you.
1st Answer Example
"I believe my previous employer would say I am a hard worker and that I always pull my own weight. I also feel like he would say that I am trustworthy."
2nd Answer Example
"I know my previous employer would give me a good reference. I feel like she would tell you that I am hardworking and dedicated. I am confidant that she would speak positively about me because she told me the door is always open if I wanted to come back to work with them."
