Describe a time when you went above and beyond the requirements for a project.

Employers ask this question to learn about your work ethic and commitment level. Many employers are looking for employees who are willing to take on new challenges that result in consistent improvement and benefit the company, instead of doing only exactly what they are told. Provide an example of a situation in a professional capacity, preferably related to a landscape architecture project. Alternatively, provide an example in any other professional or volunteer capacity, or in a university setting. Add that you are confident that your skills will be transferable in this role.
