15. Have you requested extra responsibilities in any of your previous jobs?
How to Answer
The interviewer wants to see that you have a desire to learn, grow and take on new challenges. How have you demonstrated this in past roles? Think of your most recent job and the times you volunteered to assist a coworker with a project or take on the task of researching a problem to find an alternative solution. Your willingness to take on different tasks with a positive attitude gives the interviewer all the more reason to want to get to know you better.

Answer Example
"My past supervisor was impressed with my coding knowledge as well as my ability to speak in front of people. We recently had an increase in denied claims and thought it would be best to education our professionals on the errors we were finding. My presentation was well received and I've helped bridge the gap between our medical professionals and coding team."
