"I evaluate the performance of others by the effort they put into doing their job. Projects can be completed by doing the bare minimum, but it is evident when an employee goes above and beyond to make a good project great. These are the things I consider when evaluating performance."

When you are leading a team, it is very important to be aware of the level of success that each team member is experiencing. One underperforming team player can drag down the entire group. Talk to the interviewer about how you stay aware of each team member's success.

"I have a very in-depth and successful system for evaluating success among my team members. I check in twice per week with each member of my team - on Mondays to set our goals together, and on Fridays to discuss any successes and challenges. I ask them to self-evaluate, and then we create a plan for success in the upcoming week. I evaluate their success based on their follow-through and willingness to work hard to reach their goals."

Failure isn't a bad thing. Weekly check-ins for ongoing projects and good communication are key and sometimes that's the success metric.

Stephanie's Feedback
This is a great start, but I suggest making your response a bit more specific and actionable. What specific goals and benchmarks do you check for during weekly meetings? How do you create a plan for success, and how do your employees know if they are succeeding or falling short?
Prepare for complex operational scenarios and technical questions that facilities interviewers expect.
