Give me an example of how you are dependable.
A great way to prove that you can be relied upon is to be consistently on time. Set the standard by arriving at least a few minutes early before your interview. Map out the route and go the day before so that you know where it is and how long it will take. You could also talk about a time you followed through with something, even in the face of conflict. Consistency in your work shows you are dependable as well.
"I do my best to show up to work 15 minutes early, just in case something comes up on my way there that might set me back. Traffic can be unpredictable, and it's important to me to be on time."
"My attendance record at the job I held through my schooling was perfect, even when school and family life was hectic. My mother instilled this trait in me when I was young, and I appreciate that she taught me this responsibility as a young man."
"I currently have a schedule that allows me to pull calls whenever needed with short notice. My flexibility comes in handy when someone calls in sick, and my current manager appreciates my ability to do this on a moment's notice."

I'm flexible to go to work on my day off if my manager needs me. I can change my shifts, stay overtime when someone else calls in sick, and attend conference calls when the other person is not able.
