6. How do you feel about using pesticides?
How to Answer
Depending on the greenhouse or nursery where you are interviewing, they may go organic or use traditional pesticides. Before your interview, take some time to learn about the company or farm to find out their mission and their preference for killing off insects that might interfere with the growing process.
Answer Example
"I prefer to be organic when possible; however, I understand the importance of keeping insects and pests away. At home, I use Neem Oil pesticide on my plants. It is an all purpose pesticide and has prevented mites and fungus from growing on my strawberries and watermelons."
