How to Use
Interviewer: During performance reviews, what criticism do you hear the most?
Sharon: The criticism that I hear the most is that I work too slowly. This is not because I am lazy or unorganized. It is because I am very careful and meticulous. I like to double check all of my work to make sure that there are no errors.
Interviewer: Was this a problem at your previous jobs?
Sharon: I would not say that it was a problem, but some of my co-workers at my previous jobs liked to work fast. We just had different working styles, so sometimes there were disagreements. Overall, it wasn't a major problem and I think that working slowly actually helped my team.
Interviewer: Why do you think it helped?
Sharon: To be honest, if I had not been on the team, then they would have made many mistakes. My former colleagues all liked to work fast, but they often made mistakes. I was the one who caught these mistakes and fixed them.
Interviewer: It sounds like you would be a good fit here. We like employees who pay attention to detail because we want to provide the best service to our clients all the time.
