      Answer Example

      "I am dependable. When I first started at my current job, my manager was impressed with my communication skills with others in the office. One day she asked me to take the minutes for one of the weekly meetings. Now I handle the minutes for all office meetings, including the ones with confidential/ sensitive information."
