As an Assistant Manager, you may have hiring responsibilities. Depending on the structure of the hiring company you might sit in on interviews, sort through resumes, or give your opinion on the suitability of hires, alongside your manager or HR team. The interviewer would like to know more about the type of employees that you tend to hire or lean towards. Detail the characteristics and personality types that you look for and why you have a preference for these qualities. Think of the attributes that are most valuable for a team to possess, specifically in the industry of the hiring company.
These qualities may include:
- Trustworthiness
- Accountability
- Commitment
- Results-focused
- Respect for others

"When I help my manager filter for the best candidates, I look for individuals with drive and a proven history of achieving goals. People who have a record of achievement tend to be the best employees in our retail environment. They are often more loyal and are willing to go the extra mile without being asked."
