gallup interview1. Do you think a chain of command is essential in the workplace? - CORRECT
ANSWER-I think a chain of command is essential to keep the workplace organized,
as well as so that every person on the team recognizes their role and how to
contribute to the company's success
1. What does competitive mean to you, and how competitive are you? - CORRECT
ANSWER-Competitiveness to me reflects drive and motivation to not only succeed,
but also learn and grow every day. I am competitive by nature, but I would say I am
mainly competitive within myself and that translates into persistency
1. Tell me about a time you felt successful. - CORRECT ANSWER-One of the
biggest moments of success in my life was when I committed to Stanford. I sacrificed
what would be considered a normal high school student's life to train day in and day
out in my sport, while also prioritizing my academics every single day. Attending
Stanford university became one of my biggest goals early on and I worked as hard
as I could to make the dream come true.
1. Tell me about a time you felt uncomfortable or unprepared in your job. -
CORRECT ANSWER-This past summer I had an internship with Luminis Health as
their marketing and communications major. Going into the position, I was felt
uncomfortable or unprepared because the position didn't perfectly match my
academic background so I was concerned I would be a great contributor to the team.
I quickly learned that it is good to be uncomfortable or ok to be unprepared because
that is what mentors are for and it forced me to ask questions and utilize all of my
resources to better understand the position
1. What is the kindest thing a boss has ever said to you? How did the compliment
make you feel, and did you agree with the praise? - CORRECT ANSWER-One of the
kindest things my boss has ever said to me is that my passion is noticeable. The
compliment made me feel warm, proud, and happy because it showed me that
others can notice my effort and hard work and how much I truly care about my work
or my interests. Another compliment is that I am coachable and a great team player.
1. Do you consider yourself a quick thinker? Tell me about a time your quick thinking
saved the day. - CORRECT ANSWER-I would consider myself a quick thinker and a
great problem solver because I can gather information quickly and effectively
brainstorm solutions. An example of my quick thinking was during my past
internship. My employer was overwhelmed with her workload and was concerned
she was going to make a deadline for a blog post in the newsletter coming out later
that day. I had to quickly use my creativity and gather information for the post to be
released within a couple of hours.
, 1. Do you consider yourself to be direct and forthright with others? - CORRECT
ANSWER-I do consider myself to be direct with others. I used to not be and be
scared of confrontation but I have realized through my experiences that being
straightforward, open, and honest with whoever you are interacting with is the best
way to build trust and confidence, as well as make sure that everyone is on the same
page
1. Tell me about a time you provided honest feedback to a coworker. - CORRECT
ANSWER-As a leader on the gymnastics team, I often had to provide honest
feedback to my teammates whether it was athletically or not. One of our freshmen
was not effectively communicating with the coaches as well as not keeping in touch
with her academic advisor. As an upperclassmen, I was tasked with speaking with
her about why communication is of utmost importance as well as brainstorming with
her ways she can improve. I helped her schedule meetings with her advisor and
helped her arrange her calendar so that she was more organized and therefore
better able to communicate.
1. Have you ever put your professional work ahead of your personal life? -
CORRECT ANSWER-Not necessarily professional work because I have never had
some full time role, but when I was a student athlete at Stanford there were certainly
times where I put my sport or athletic career over my personal life and what I learned
is that it is acceptable to put your professional work ahead of your personal life in
dire moments or moments that don't sacrifice other components of your life, but as
soon as it starts to affect your mental health and your relationships....that is when it
becomes toxic and does more harm than good
1. How do you keep track of your day to day tasks and activities? - CORRECT
ANSWER-I am a very organized person and take pride in my time management
skills. I love to keep a physical planner of any assignments or to do lists and also like
to keep my digital calendar up to date so that I am organized and minimizing any
stress that I can easily manage
1. Would you prefer to earn a set salary or be offered uncapped pay based on
performance? - CORRECT ANSWER-I would prefer to earn a set salary. As a newly
graduated student, a set salary would provide more stability in my life, although I do
have a very driven and internally motivated personality I think a set salary would be
best considering the period of life I am in
1. What does integrity mean to you? - CORRECT ANSWER-To me, integrity is
having strong moral principles in all aspects of life, but also in public and in private. It
is being confident in your values and doing the right thing no matter the
circumstances.
