Q:

When have you had to adapt to change in the workplace?

Answer

Being able to adapt to change in the workplace is an essential skill to possess because change is inevitable. The interviewer would like to know about a time you were required to adapt to change in the workplace. 


Sample answer in my view is to be "In my current management position, it was a lot of change to handle in a short time, especially being unsure of who to report to ahead of others and it took a little while to adjust. The training component of my staff was not easy either. However, in the end, it was worth it to secure such a high profile."

Q:

Tell me about a time you had to handle multiple responsibilities. How did you organize the work you needed to do?

Answer

Sample Response :


While attending college, I also worked at a law firm. I was successful because I practiced good time-management skills, and I made a to-do list every day. As I completed each task, I checked it off the list. It is funny how something so simple can keep you so organized. As a result of my to-do lists, I was able to visualize my daily progress.

Q:

Tell us about a situation in which you had to adjust to changes over which you had no control. How did you handle it?

Answer

Strategy Statement: 


The interviewer is interested in knowing how you are able to perform in a workplace where you are not the one who is ‘making the calls’. The typical workplace environment involves a tiered structure where there are those who make the decisions and those who perform the work. An entry level position most often assumes the role of the latter. 


Sample Response: 


I am a performer of tasks. As a new employee, I understand that many of my duties will be directed by those above me. These will undoubtedly involve changes, and as long as I understand how the changes are related to the betterment of the company/business/corporation, I am fully ‘on board’. I once worked for a corporation where one of my duties was to prepare the annual report. As a result of input from the overseeing board and members, the format for that report was changed significantly. Although this meant that I had to relearn the report-writing process, with my understanding that this change would mean that the report was more accessible and easy to read, I had no problem with the demands of that change.
