Do you prefer to work on your own, or as a part of a team?

Depending on the size of the service station to which you are applying, you may be required to work alone (small-sized stations or those with a lot of automation) or with a group of others (stations with multiple pumps and a range of services). The interviewer wants to get a feel for your personality and how you interact with others. You may work well without the need for much management or direction, or perhaps you are better driven by a collaborative and team led environment. Either way, be honest with the interviewer about your preferences without leaning negatively, either way.

"Most of my recent retail experience includes independent work since I currently manage a kiosk, so I would welcome the support of working in a team environment. Whether I am doing an independent project or working in a team environment, I always give my best. I enjoy the camaraderie of working in a team, but I can be successful working autonomously as well."
