What do you like and dislike about working with technical-minded colleagues?
Technical-minded or technology-skilled workers, such as coders, software engineers, systems architects, are highly logical thinkers. The interviewer will want to learn that you can appeal to logic while representing business interest, as well as customer satisfaction. When crafting your response, think about the benefits and disadvantages there might be in working with a crowd that thrives on solving problems and hate fluff.
"In my experience, tech people tend to be less expressive, so it can be hard to gauge their reactions and emotions. It can take some time for them to warm up, which could make for an awkward working environment at the start. Fortunately, I've experienced working with a variety of similar personalities, so I've learned to adapt. I like that I'm able always to tie everything back to data and metrics. For example, if a team member says no to a recommendation or a proposal, I can always count on them to back it up with facts. It can be quite refreshing to work with people who are so objective."
