Describe your work ethic.
HireVue's algorithm will evaluate your attention to detail by scrutinizing the consistency of your answer throughout the on-demand interview set. This includes how consistent your non-verbal cues are with what you say and whether you unintentionally contradict yourself from answer to answer, or from what you've detailed on your resume. This will also inform them of the consistency they can expect from your work performance.

The assessment model will evaluate and rate your skill levels and summarize them in your candidate insights report. So, when describing your work ethic, describe the work standard you hold yourself to. Detail how you are competitive with yourself and aim to go above and beyond. Speak to your sense of integrity, the moral principles you apply to your work, and what drives and motivates you to do the right thing. After outlining your work ethic, share an example of when you demonstrated those characteristics and traits in the workplace. Storytelling impacts hiring managers because it provides evidence of your ethics and character.
"I am a very dedicated and loyal employee. On Company ABC's website, I saw that the organization values the delivery of exceptional customer service. My work ethic aligns greatly with this value. I work hard for my employer and deliver excellent customer service no matter how the day unfolds. For instance, in my current role, I am often the last to leave because I am committed to returning every client's voicemail and email before I leave for the day."
Spend time meditating on what you want to say, and practice speaking in a natural and evenly paced tone. Enunciate your words, avoiding stutters or long pauses. Yet, again, try to come across as natural. Sounding too rehearsed likewise can make you sound wooden and dull. Also, practice in front of your computer's camera, trying not to look at yourself on the screen, but rather maintaining eye contact with the camera lens as if you're speaking face-to-face with a person, and keep at it. This will help you avoid giving the algorithm unintended cues or signals that could cause it to draw the wrong conclusions from your answer.
