The interviewer would like to know the extent of your experience with asbestos. Discuss any time you have worked with building inspections that involve asbestos, supervised asbestos abatement contractors, collected asbestos air samples, or did an onsite analysis of asbestos air sample cassettes.
Describe your ability to perform air, soil, or water sampling. If applicable, share your experience in the oversight of subcontractors, and health and safety monitoring activities. These experiences can be considered an advantage and can help you beyond the closed doors of a laboratory.
