This question helps interviewers decide whether you will fit their company culture and work well with others. This question is easier to answer if you research before the job interview and read through the job description to match your qualifications with their requirements. They may be looking for both independent thinkers and team players. Prepare answers that show how your work style makes you the best candidate for the job.

"My working style is more collaborative than independent. In my past role, I have worked independently to edit manuscripts. Also, a lot of the time, I worked as a team player. I believe editors need to know how to work with others to reach a common goal. The best editors have a broad understanding of the media, communications, and publishing industries, and they need to know how to work effectively with writers, publishers, web developers, designers, photographers, project managers, printers, and other editors."
