The hiring authority wants to gauge the types of projects you are accustomed to working. If the bulk of your career has been in residential construction, your projects may be shorter-term such as building a home or longer-term, such as developing a community or multi-unit dwelling. If your construction project management experience is primarily in commercial construction, perhaps you have experience leading the build of towers and hotels. Regardless of your experience, background, and specialty, be sure to provide an answer that gives an accurate representation of your unwavering commitment and enthusiasm for long term projects, as well as the ongoing provision of high-quality work.
