If hired as their next Flight Attendant, your interviewer wants to know that you have the ability to grab the bull by the horns and take action without any direction from others when the situation would call for it. Talk to the interviewer about your capabilities when it comes to taking control of a situation by giving them an example of a time you did just that. Make sure the situation you describes carefully outlines the situation and your thought process in taking action immediately. Also, be sure to talk about the successful outcome of the situation.

"Our company launched a food bank initiative last year where teams would compete to see who could raise the most funds and donations for our local food bank in 30 days. We really didn't have anyone willing to take control of the team and track our progress, so I decided to do it myself. I am very organized and have the ability to motivate the people around me. It was very rewarding and worth the additional time. I'm happy that I did it because our team almost doubled every other teams' fund and donations."
