Remember to scan the posting for the job you are interested in for the personality traits they are seeking in a candidate. Align your response with one or more of those traits if they describe you well. For example, if a company values individuals who can pivot easily, answering with 'agile' or 'flexible' would demonstrate your alignment with their values.

"It might depend on who you ask, but I think all of my coworkers would agree with 'tenacious' because I chase whatever I am assigned with determination. They would also say I am 'direct' because it is my natural communication style. Finally, I think they would say that I am 'lighthearted.' I like to work hard, and I try to inspire others to do the same. However, I enjoy a positive and vulnerable environment in which my teams and I laugh often and do not take ourselves too seriously."
