There's a good chance the interviewer may contact your former employer, so be sure to be honest about what they may say about you. Think about the feedback they've given you in the past and share what they've expressed are some of your best qualities. Consider what they might say about your work ethic, your ability to work as part of a team, and what value you add to the workplace. You can also share general strengths of yours that your former employer likely noticed.

The interviewer asks this in order to gauge how you were perceived by your former boss. They want to see that you are aware of the energy you give off and whether or not you had a positive relationship with your manager. Be sure to keep your answer positive, and be honest about how they may describe your strengths, work ethic, performance, and overall attitude.

"My former manager would say that I am a very dependable, flexible, and positive addition to a team. I am a team player and am very easy going. She would also tell you I'm very committed to my job, and I work really hard in order for students to have a positive experience in my classroom. I'm dedicated to my work and always have a positive attitude."
