“Do You Prefer to Work Alone or in a Team?”

This is a culture-fit question, and the smart move is balance. Show that you thrive in both settings.

Tips:

  • Don’t pick extremes.

  • Show teamwork skills and independence.

  • Use a real example of both.

Example answer:
“I enjoy collaborating with teams because great ideas come from different perspectives. At the same time, I’m comfortable working independently. For example, I often lead cross-functional projects, but also take ownership of individual tasks that require focus.”

Flexibility is the real strength.
