Have you ever had to enforce a company policy that you disagreed with?

Even though you may have a great relationship with your employer, there may be times where you don't see eye to eye. Think of a conflict or disagreement you had with your boss or company where you responded well, either by suggesting a compromise or taking a calm, relaxed stance when you could have answered in a heated tone.

Getting along well with others puts you in a favorable position because it shows your desire to collaborate and highlights your ability to problem solve and produce excellent results, despite a challenging situation.

When asked a 'Have you ever...' style of question, it's important to remember that the interviewer is looking for a specific story-based example that highlights your behavior in challenging situations. By using the STAR interview method (an acronym for Situation, Task, Action, Result), you can more easily form a story-based response.
