QUESTION 38 OF 39

Tell me about your record of attendance and punctuality in your past positions.

Rather than giving a statement, this is a great time to give the hiring manager examples of times that your previous manager/supervisor complimented you on your attendance, punctuality, and overall reliability.

"In my performance reviews with my past employers, my level of reliability was always praised. I take punctuality seriously and am always in attendance when expected. I have not had any unexcused absences in the past 3 years."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Anonymous Answer

For any location, I like to be there 30 minutes before my start shift. I observe what's going on at the place, see what is a priority, and talk with the opening chef.
