What are some of the skills a professional agile tester needs to have?

At first glance, this question may seem similar to the previous one. However, it is different in that it asks about the qualities that the tester needs to possess. During an interview that is critically important that you pay attention to the questions, the interviewer is asking you. You need to make sure your answers address their questions and provide them the information they are seeking. It is easy to fall into the trap of preparing your response as soon as the interview starts asking the question. Make sure you wait until they are finished talking and then take a second are two before you begin to respond. This will demonstrate your listening skills and will help to ensure your answer is appropriate for their question.
