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.

(Situation) I had several professors encourage me to extend my commitment to school for two to three years to obtain a Master’s degree. They explained the opportunities and the prestige that go with holding such an advanced degree in my field, and they let me know that they were confident I would be successful in their program. But I had not previously planned on being in school that long and was anxious to assume some professional responsibilities.
(Action) I talked the situation over with the people who matter most to me in family, and also with my former boss who has always mentored me. I also made a list of the pros and cons of staying in school. While going through the process, I realized that I could always work on my degree while working or return to school in the future if I believed that would be to my advantage.
(Result) I decided to stick with my original plan and seek a professional position where I can have an immediate impact on the local community. But I’m glad I had the opportunity to evaluate the benefits of a Masters degree because I now have a much better understanding of my professional options and potential strategies for growth in the future.

(Situation) I was the coach of a youth basketball team that was playing for league championship. The team we were playing against had much taller players, and some were senior high-school students who had played on the senior basketball teams. Several of the players on our team thought we had no chance to win and even talked about forfeiting.
(Action) I acknowledged how challenging the game would be. But I also talked to the players about how many tough matches we had won to get where we were. And as sort of a joke I offered to buy everyone ice cream if we won.
(Result) We played really inspired basketball and we barely lost to a much taller and more physically gifted team. We came together as a team during that match and everyone supported one another. I learned how well people respond when you are willing to make a personal sacrifice to help the team succeed.

I headed up a project which involved web designers and programmers. I organized a meeting to get everyone together to brainstorm and get his or her input. From this meeting I drew up a plan, taking the best of the ideas. I organized teams, balancing the mixture of technical and non-technical people. We had a deadline to meet, so I did periodic checks with the teams. After three weeks, we were exceeding expectations, and were able to begin implementation of the plan. It was a great team effort, and a big success.

Once I woke up I would immediately call work, apologize, and let them know what happened and inform them that I was going to be late. I would then call a co-worker and ask them to cover for me until I arrived. Once I arrived I would apologize again and ask if I can stay late or come in early to make up the lost time. Finally, I would buy a new alarm clock to ensure that this did not happen again.

Based on my research and the information I have gathered during the interview process, I feel I am in a position to consider an offer. I do, however, have a personal policy that I give myself at least 24 hours to make major life decisions. I could let you know by tomorrow.

I pride myself on my ability to stay on top of what is happening in my industry. I do a lot of reading - the information technology and business section of the newspapers and magazines. I belong to a couple of professional organizations and network with colleagues at the meetings. I take classes and seminars whenever they are of interest, or offer new information or technology.

Intense competition and downsizing have become an accepted part of our economy. In order to succeed in this job market, candidates must be increasingly vigilant to know about new developments, update their skills, and present their capabilities in new ways. This is especially true for older employees who must often change careers in midlife. The challenge is there, and it can be met.
