How do you best learn the tasks of a new position?

The interviewer asks this question to determine what type of training will be most successful for you. Some individuals learn best by lecture, some by hands-on learning, and some are more visual. The interviewer wants to understand which type of learning would be best for you if you are hired.

Think about your previous positions and how you learned the tasks of your new roles. Talk about the training methods that were most successful for you, and if there is a way that does not help you learn, discuss that as well.

"I learn best by having a mentor that I can ask questions or bounce ideas off. If it is about policy or procedures, I learn best by reading and being able to resort back to the information if necessary."
