The interviewers ask this question to see how you work with and speak of others. They want to know if you will be an easy or challenging person to work with. When you answer this question, remain positive, even if the experience wasn't. Keep your answer short and respectful. Avoid discussing any previous drama or speaking poorly of your employer.

If you had a great relationship with your previous boss, explain what made it great. If you did not have a good relationship with your former boss, focus on saying, 'I have had healthier relationships with previous employers, but we did our best. Our communication styles were very different, making it challenging at times.' Be sure to have a follow-up answer if the interviewers ask you to expand on what you have just said.
