Answer Example
"I would like to work as a shift supervisor one day, but feel that I need t least three years experience with your company before I would feel comfortable enough to apply for the position. I worked as a server in a restaurant for three years before promoting to a managerial position. I felt it took that long to really understand what the job required. I found that I was an effective leader because I knew what was required of every position in the restaurant, and I had compassion for the employees. The previous manager mentored me and taught me how to be an effective and respected manager. I have a strong work ethic and believe in leading by example."
