Interviewer: What do you think you do well?
Tina: After working for a couple of years, I realize that my strength is being able to finish a lot of work in a short period of time. I am able to work in stressful situations and still get a lot of work done. This was very valuable at my previous job and my manager appreciated it a lot.
Interviewer: Why do you think you are so good at that?
Tina: First, I am a hard worker and I have no problem working late or on weekends if that is what is necessary to finish a job. Also, I am good at time management and I can work well even under tight deadlines.
Interviewer: Did your previous job have a lot of tight deadlines?
Tina: Yes. There were very many. At my previous job, things changed very quickly, so we often had to make adjustments at the last minute. But working in that type of environment can be exciting.
Interviewer: So, would you say that you enjoy working in that kind of environment?
Tina: Yes, I would.
