Answer 1

a) What is your greatest weakness?

I focus too much on the details

b) How will you rate yourself on a scale from one to ten?

In a scale of 1 to ten I would give myself a rating of 8.

c)  Are you a leader or a follower?

I enjoy being a leader and I think it's what I'm best at naturally. However, I also look for opportunities to learn and follow those who have more experience than me. I love asking questions to learn from my managers and more senior team members, and I love having a chance to collaborate with others.

d) How long do you want to stay with us? / How long do you plan to work for us?

I would like to work for you as long as I can grow professionally and that I get exposed to more challenging tasks.

e)Are you interested in a full-time or part-time position?

I would love the opportunity to become a full-time employee. I am very excited at the prospect of this part-time job, but I would gladly accept a full-time position if it were ever available. I believe my organizational and time management skills would make me a very strong full-time employee.

f)Will you accept a lower position for the time being?

As you know, this role represents a bit of a career shift for me. So in many ways, starting out at this level makes a lot of sense—I've had more responsibilities at other positions, but not within this industry. I'm excited to grow my knowledge, while using some of the skills I've gained in previous roles. This is such a good moment for me to make the transition on a personal level, since my kids are all about to graduate college, and financially, having a lower salary is doable.

g)When can you join us? / When can you begin? / How long will you take to join 

us?

Under the terms of my contract, I’m obligated to give three weeks’ notice. However, I can start the next day, as soon as I’ve met that requirement. I’m eager to meet the rest of the team and get to work.
