Interview question............creative
« on: February 07, 2012, 12:19:43 pm »
On my final stage.............this is the question, I would like to know what YOU would do / why?

John, please can you bring along an object, picture or photograph which demonstrates your skills as an effective team player. You will use this during the day so we can learn a bit more about you - Be as creative as you wish!! bring high levels of energy, buckets full of enthusiasm and a great sense of fun!!

So come on ALL what would you take/why?

PLEASE be helpfull - not silly comments  :happy2:

The object has to same something about you so only you can really choose your object.

But it could be something like a box of sweets / cakes, give them out to people over the course of the day when they do you a solid or something like that.

Is this a job for a circus or something?  Sounds like a lot of hoops to jump through anyway...

I'm not being funny, but this is your job interview! I'm not a fan of these wooly questions either, but they are open to interpretation, and it's up to you to demonstrate that YOU are right for the job, not one of us.

I understand its about me - and do have some ideas of things to do.....what I was LOOKING for way other peoples thoughts on what THEY would do.

Insperationally thoughts.

Im not a fan of these questions either - there is no right or wrong answer - it s pesonality thing. It was an open question to see people thoughts on it.

I'd start with what being an effective team player means... contribution, leadership, reliability, flexibility, commitment etc.

I just cant get passed thinking < predictable and boaring

Or the stupid side -

The sprained anckle from the weekend < thoughy I would try clearing a jump on the sledge, which went wrong  :signLOL: have the video lol technical a team effort, as I got the most distance  :pomppomp:

 :signLOL: Last one true, but joking about bringing that up!!
