This question offers the interviewers insight as to how you view teamwork as well as how well you integrate and collaborate with others. Team cohesion is a big consideration for many employers, so your interviewers will want to understand how well you work with others and how your involvement is perceived by teammates. Consider the various roles a member of a team might have and where you fit - are you an outspoken leader, an examiner/inquirer, a doer, or something else?

"My former colleagues would likely describe me as a team member that listens and observes, seeks clarification, and then provides collaborative suggestions. I rarely start off sharing my ideas, because I like to synthesize what I hear from everyone in the group and try to offer collaborative solutions. I believe my former colleagues find me to be a fairly flexible team member, so I can move around based on what is most needed, whether it's leading a particular project, act on given directions, or support in some other way."
