Many Electrical Inspectors will work alone and not necessarily take on a leadership role unless they advance to a leadership position in their careers. The interviewer wants to know if you have ever taken on a leadership role and the outcome to determine if you have the leadership style they are looking for in a candidate. Keep your answer relevant to the position. If you have not been a leader as an Electrical Inspector, describe another time you led a group of people and the outcome.

Avoid saying you have never had a leadership role. If you have not led a group of individuals, the interviewer might see you as timid or introverted. The company wants someone who will interact well with coworkers and the public and has leadership qualities. If you have not led as an Electrical Inspector, describe when you were a leader in school, another job, or on a sports team.

"Yes, I have taken on leadership roles in my career as an Electrician. I led a crew of eight individuals who reported to me for their assignments. I was a mentor for apprentices and supervised my crew on every project. I have always had a good outcome in leadership roles as I believe in working alongside my crew while providing motivation and inspiration to do the best work possible. I enjoy working with others and look forward to working in a leadership role with your company if hired."
