Do you prefer to work on your own, or as a part of a team?

"So long as the team environment is healthy and collaborative, I am happy working as a team, or on my own. I have many years' experience working in a small office, where I was alone a lot of the time. Currently, my office supports multiple dentists, and we have a variety of team members."

This is not a trick question! The interviewer is trying to get a feel for your personality and how you interact with others. You may work well without the need for much management or direction, or perhaps you are better driven by a collaborative and team led environment. Either way, be honest with the interviewer about your preferences without leaning negatively, either way.

"Whether I am doing an independent project, or working in a team environment, I always give my best. I enjoy the camaraderie of working in a team, but I can be successful working autonomously as well."
