"I would like for people to notice that I am approachable and easy to get to know. I tend to be shy at times and some people mistake that for me not being friendly. Given a little time to really get to know me, though, I believe anyone can tell that I am very friendly and enjoy getting to know others."

Your personality speaks volumes about who you are. We are often our own worst critics. This question gives the interviewer an opportunity to get to know you on your own terms, so to speak. Share what qualities you think your personality portrays, but remember to be honest. Actions speak louder than words and, if hired, you will be expected to portray the attributes you have discussed.

"I would like to think that people who meet feel that I am kind and very easy to get along with. Life has enough stress without us creating any more of it unnecessarily. With that in mind, I try to be the peacekeeper. I like to work hard and lend a hand whenever possible."
