QUESTION 12 OF 26

If a major product was recalled and our call center employees had to stay overtime, how would you react?

The recruiter is trying to gauge your flexibility and dedication to the job. Be honest about your stance on work-life balance, but keep in mind that you need to prove your worth at this point, as long as conditions are reasonable of course.

Here is an interview answer example: "I'm reasonably flexible and if business needs are such that it would be necessary for me to worker longer hours then I would certainly be prepared to do so."
