The interviewer wants to see if you speak up and ask questions if you are unsure how something is done. They would rather you ask for help or direction when needed instead of muddling your way through a task and doing it incorrectly. Describe how you would ask for clarification in this situation.

Avoid staying silent and not asking for clarification. If you try to do a job in a way you are not used to and do it incorrectly, it costs the employer time and money for you to fix it.

"If you asked me to do something in a way that I was not familiar with, I would immediately speak up and explain I do not know how to perform the task the way you described. I would ask if you could show me how you want the job done. Once I am shown, I would not need further supervision and could complete the task on my own."
