(upbeat music) - Let's see how someone might answer this question, and then I'll give a little bit of feedback. - I think my coworkers would tell you that I'm the one you turn to when it's time to make sure everyone stays motivated, and on track to pull off big, high profile projects. In fact, in one of my LinkedIn recommendations, my supervisor refers to me as the human glue, which is something I'm pretty proud of. She gave me that recommendation after we went through an incredibly complex ERP implementation. It was one of those stressful time critical projects that required the team to come together and make things happen in a short amount of time. I not only kept the crew going, sometimes through long evening and weekend hours, but inspired to bring their absolute best I think that they also appreciated the pizza and donuts I brought in too. - This is a solid answer, especially if you're interviewing for a job with strong focus on project coordination and teamwork. You shared something specifically related to the job, and you also pointed the interviewer to a supervisor's favorable LinkedIn recommendation. Finally, I like that you shared a bit of humor. It's not only okay to show your human side when you're interviewing, it's a smart strategy. when you're interviewing, it's a smart strategy.
