      Focus Your Answer On

      Assuring the interviewer you are a part of a team and would ask for help if you needed it. Assure them that if the situation were reversed, you would be happy to help your peers if they needed assistance.

      Stay Away From

      Appearing as if you are a dictator. If you were a supervisor in a previous role, this is especially important. Do not say "I have been a supervisor, so I have no problem delegating tasks". That will likely not be part of an Account Representative role, and would make it seem as if you are "used to being the boss."

      Distributing work Example

      "If I am tasked with a project that is too much for me to handle in the allotted time, I would first ask my supervisor if they might help me by assigning some pieces of the project to others. If that is not possible, I would talk with my team members and ask them for help."
