29. Tell me about a risk you discovered from your past job?
How to Answer
When you answer this question be sure to give an example but be careful not to give away any trade secrets and do not risk speaking poorly of your previous place of employment.
Answer Example
"Last January, while working for ABC Company, I was alerted to a technical issue that was quite serious. If left untouched, it would have shut down production and cost the company millions of dollars to fix. I was able to very briefly pause production and have the technical team fix the risk before anyone was injured and before funds were wasted. Risks are always discovered in this line of work and I am always sure to put safety, and the bottom line, first."
