QUESTION 29 OF 39

When have you resolved a conflict with a kitchen helper?

Conflict resolution skills are very important as a sous chef because you will be working in a high-stress/high-pressure environment. Talk to the hiring manager about a time when you have specifically resolved a conflict.

"I resolved a conflict, just last week, between two of my kitchen helpers. They had a disagreement about the schedule and booked time off. I resolved this through sitting down with each of them individually, and then together. We came down to the basis of the issue and resolved it quickly through strong communication."
