Emily McMannes is an organizational leader with 20 years' experience interviewing and hiring a variety of candidates in both a global organization (AstraZeneca) and a university environment (Texas A&M University).

The interviewer wants to know you have some experience that will lend itself to the position. Even if you don't have direct experience, draw on other things such as raising a family, volunteer work, etc. Describe duties that you can relate to the job description for this position. If you answered phones, filed, or maintained a calendar of appointments, it's still experience.
