Think about a time that you were assigned a task that you were not familiar with. Talk about how you went about attempting to learn the task on your own, or asking a peer or member of your management team for assistance. Discuss how you made sure that you would be able to successfully complete the task moving forward.

"I don't like to waste much time so I will generally ask for guidance if the task is something that I am completely unfamiliar with. If it is simple and I can figure it out, I will use the resources that I have to do so."
