This question is aimed at revealing what kind of worker you are. It will be important not to bad-mouth your past employer or answer negatively in any way. Rather than using soft descriptions, such as personality traits, mention specific behaviors that you appreciate as an employee. Tell the interviewer if you like to have regular check-ins or be consulted before moving forward with a project.
