Describe yourself in one word.

I was asked this question in a previous interview. I answered "honest". I have another interview tomorrow. Wondering what the best responses are for this question. I was also thinking "dependable"

I think you should go with what comes naturally and which one speaks more to your strengths. Sounds like you handled that well. Good luck on your interview.

Well, it's a lot better than "screwy"........:sneaky:

Which reminds me: We used to have a cat named Lucy who was, to put it delicately, a couple cat doots shy of a full litterbox. We called her "Screwloosey". Which is what I'm going to be tomorrow if I don't get my carcass to bed SOON.

If I were honest I'd say antiquated. But I don't share that with prospective employers.

Honest and dependable are wonderful attributes. I'd list them myself.

But you want to get a job everybody else wants too.

I'd add adaptable or flexible.

right now at work? FLUSTERED!!!

Good luck tomorrow =)

You guys are great :) just got done with interview... Now I'm nervous! I think it went really well. We didn't discuss pay and I forgot to ask, is that a bad thing? I'm not overly concerned about pay because I really think I will like the job. I have heard mixed opinions on when to discuss pay. Some people say to do it after you have an offer? Hopefully I will get good news early next week!
