Interviewers can call your former employer for a reference, but they want to hear in your words how you think they would describe you. Highlight the personality traits you feel most stood out to your former employer. If you have a letter of recommendation from them, use words they used in the letter to describe you. If the interviewer allows you to provide them with letters of recommendation, this is an excellent time to give them a copy.

"I have letters of recommendation from my former employers if you would like a copy. My last employer described me as enthusiastic and energetic with a strong work ethic. She said that I am dependable, honest and that I have excellent patient skills."
