Lean Manufacturing: catching the concept of JIT(Just-in-time) and re-examines it from the client point of view. Anything that is made should put something of valuable to the client’s requirement.

Q:

What experience do you have in lean manufacturing field?

Answer

Hopefully if you're applying for this position you have bags of related experience and if that's the case you should mention it all. But if you're switching careers or trying something a little different, your experience may initially not look like it's matching up. That's when you need a little honest creativity to match the experiences required with the ones you have. People skills are people skills after all, you just need to show how customer service skills can apply to interrnal management positions, and so on.
