QUESTION 21 OF 37

Have you ever been on a team where someone was not pulling their own weight? How did you handle it?

"I always try to set a good example for everyone because I think a team works best when everyone is giving it their fullest effort. If that were to happen to me, I'd try to get to know that person to understand why they're not motivated to try their best. There's usually a fair reason. If it's affecting the entire team, I'll bring to to the supervisor's attention."

It is reality that in the workplace some people will be overachievers and others will just scrape by with the bare minimum. Share with the interviewer how you feel when others do not pull their weight in the workplace and how you handle it.

"I am not the personality type to confront someone who isn't pulling their full weight. Unless, of course, I am their supervisor. In all honestly, I would probably just finish the work for them without saying anything as opposed to causing a fuss. You cannot force people to want to work but you can control how hard you work. I like to keep my focus on my own personal performance and let the rest speak for itself."
