"I work well with leaders who set clear guidelines and then allow me to perform my best work. I am independent; however, I love a collaborative work environment, especially because I am so new in my career. I am eager to soak up anything I can learn from those senior to me. Could you share with me a bit more about the work style of the person to whom I would be reporting?"

As an Administrative Officer, you must be able to collaborate well with your management and leadership team. The interviewer would like assurance that you are going to get along well with people whom you would be reporting to in this role. There are many different management styles, and perhaps you do well with a variety of them. Tell the interviewer about your favorite leader in the past, and why you worked so well together. You should also ask the interviewer to describe the working style of the person to whom you would be reporting.

"I am the type of leader who prefers to show versus tell. In turn, I like to work with people who live by the same philosophy. I appreciate urgency but do not appreciate those who panic and create unsettling urgency in everything they do. Please tell me a bit more about the leadership style present in your organization."
