"I don't believe I've experienced any incidents that I would consider a total disappointment. I've taken any situation that was less than pleasant and turned it into a lesson. This helps me learn from mistakes and have different perspectives."

Disappointments are bound to happen at some point during your career. Explain to the interviewer the cause for your disappointment in a particular incident and how you overcame that disappointment. Be sure to share a positive outcome to a negative situation.

"In my last role, I was working on a Parisian magazine and had to manage two local and two international graphic designers. Due to the difference in culture and work styles, there were a lot of communication gaps. As an art director, I had to step in and hold regular meetings so that each designer could discuss daily progress and deadlines to resolve issues even before things got heated. This project was disappointing because I had to micromanage my team, which is not my managerial style. However, I did learn that once people get to know each other and start working together, it is smooth sailing!"
