Facility Manager Mock Interview

Master 35 Facility Manager interview questions covering operations, budgets, compliance, and emergency response.

WRITTEN BY RONDA BARNES
QUESTION 29 OF 35

How would you rate your communication skills?

"My written communication skills are powerful. I often utilize written communications as a follow-up to verbal communications. They provide a great resource for associates to go back to and reference, plus they might answer any questions that come up along the way."

Both written and verbal communication skills are necessary to perform the duties of a Facilities Manager. The interviewer wants to know how well you communicate, whether that means emails, reports, or in person. Share your skill and confidence level in written and verbal communication. Also, if you have taken any courses in communication or writing, feel free to mention these to the interviewer. Talk to the interviewer about your skills and support your answer with a brief example or story.

"I would describe my communication skills as very strong and would rate myself as a 9/10. I have always had a penchant for writing and have taken university courses related to communication, writing, and business administration. I speak to others with respect, professionalism, and kindness."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Anonymous Answer

8/10. I feel I have pretty strong communication skills. Also, I thank higher powers for spell and grammar checking almost every day.

Stephanie's Feedback

An 8/10 for communication skills is pretty solid! Because communication skills can be both written and verbal, I suggest specifically naming both and providing an example of how you show strength in each area.
