If you have experience working as an Arson Investigator or a fire service member, describe how well you have collaborated with others in the past. If you are new to this field, use an experience from a former job, sports team, or school to describe how you work well with others.

If you want to be considered for the position, avoid saying you prefer to work alone or you do not work well with others. It is okay if you prefer to work alone, but you should not voice that to the interviewer. They want to see that you are a team player and can work well with others.

"I collaborate very well with others. It helps when you have like-minded individuals working toward a common goal. In my ten years of working as an Arson Investigator, I have collaborated with law enforcement, members of the fire service, and other investigators and never had any issues. I like working independently and enjoy working with others and learning from their experiences."
