Do you make mistakes? Can you share your mistakes with others?
Do you make mistakes?
Yes of course on occasions, but I obviously try not to, and I always try to correct them and learn from them.
Can you share your mistakes with others?
Absolutely I can - I get the guidance I need, and it may help prevent others from making the same mistake.

What is your biggest strength and weakness?
strength
I think my ability to get the job done is my biggest strength. I take great pride in accomplishing something efficiently, on time, and with no errors. I’m also a team player and relate to people at different levels.
Also, my ability to be flexible in my perspective. My flexibility in analyzing new ideas and concepts. I’ve seen technology, businesses and management go through restructuring and had to adjust my style to new environments but I’ve always succeeded in adapting.
weakness
I don’t believe I am actually ‘weak’ in any area.
However, one of my weakness is refusing to give in when I believe strongly about something.
I take great pride in doing something great, sometimes being impatient with other people’s sloppy work.

How do you like to be managed /not like to be managed?
I’m generally very adaptable to most management styles. In the past I’ve helped my bosses get the best out of me by talking to them and developing a really good understanding. I work best when I’m given freedom and responsibility to take some of the load off my boss’s shoulders - they have enough to deal with.

How many hours a week do you work/prefer to work?
It varies according to the situation. I plan and organise well, so unless there’s a crisis or unusual demand I try to finish at a sensible time so as to have some time for my family/social life/outside interests. It’s important to keep a good balance. I start earlier than most people - you can get a lot done before the phones start ringing. When the pressure’s on though I’m happy to work as long as it takes to get the job done. It’s not about the number of hours - it’s the quality of the work that you do; how productive you are.

How do you plan and organize your work?
Planning and writing a plan is very important. I think how best to do things before I do them, if it’s unknown territory I’d take advice, learn from previous examples - why re-invent the wheel? I always prioritize, I manage my time, and I understand the difference between urgent and important. For very complex projects I’d produce quite a detailed schedule and plan review stages. I even plan time-slots for activities that aren’t in themselves organised, like thinking time, and being creative, solving problems, etc.

Tell me about something recently that really annoyed you.
I tend to get more annoyed with myself than with other people or other situations. Annoyance isn’t very productive, so I tend to try to understand and concentrate on finding a way around a problem or putting things straight.

Give me an example of when you’ve produced some poor work and how you’ve dealt with it.
I’ve probably made one or two mistakes - everyone does - but that I always do everything I can to put them straight, learn from them and made sure I wont make the same mistake again.

What will you bring to the job/company if we employ you?
I can see clearly that quick results are top priority - and that’s something I’m good at generating, because I have good abilities and experience to interpret situations, and then a strong focus on activities which will achieve change and results in the necessary areas.
I’m diplomatic with people too, which means I can generally bring people along with me; if needs be though I can be firm and determined enough to convince people who need a bit of extra encouragement.

What makes you mad?
Nothing really makes me mad - it’s not a good way to deal with anything.
Certain things disappoint or upset me - includes rudeness, arrogance and spitefulness.
