An environmental engineer will work with many different people. It's essential to let your interviewer know that you're confident in communicating complex engineering topics to people of any skill level and background. Your answer should clarify that you have a strong understanding of engineering concepts and understand the importance of communicating those concepts. Before the interview, consider listing some complex engineering concepts and how to simplify them so that others can understand the big idea in terms they can relate to.

"I do my best to give examples of engineering concepts that are easy to understand and that might relate to a person or their specific situation. For instance, if I'm sitting down with a group of construction workers, I will compare what I am saying to the process of paving roads. Relating complex engineering concepts to real situations gives my audience a better understanding of the project in terms they can understand."
