Describe the office environment in which you best thrive.

"The office environment in which I thrive is best described as friendly, full of problem-solvers, and willing to work well with other departments to complete a project smoothly. From the online reviews that I have read, I believe that this describes your office environment very well. Would you agree?"

The interviewer would like to know the type of office environment that you respond best to. Be honest when you answer this question as it's crucial there is a two-way fit here. Nobody wants to take a new job and then quickly realize that the environment is not what they wanted. If there are cues on the company's website regarding their workplace culture, be sure to reference those.

"I am resilient and can work in almost any environment; however, what is ideal for me is that I join an office environment that is collaborative and positive. I had been in environments where people do not support each other which makes it very hard to enjoy the day-to-day. Would you say this describes your office environment?"
